      I mean this comes from Microsoft… I’m one of the Linux nerds here, so my perspective might be skewed 🙃 But I get that feeling a lot when interacting with Microsoft products. Like finding useful log data to debug an issue. It’s either not there in the first place, or completely incomprehensible and doesn’t even tell you a cause or where to look. Even after googling. I don’t think any of that is made for humans 😅
