Reminder: Microsoft relocated their headquarters to Munich after they scored the win to abandon LiMux, the first OSS project in a big city. This is just the return on investment. Works very well in a state that doesn't care for high level corruption.
Edit: Bavaria also meddled with the decision to adopt Open Document Text as defacto standard in Germany. My memory is a little bit blurry on this and internet search for older articles is just...non-existent anymore.
Anyway, that decision was reversed .
Edit 2: There might be something else going on in the background as well. Lidl/Schwarz and SAP are going heavy on the "German Cloud". They are both from Baden-Württemberg, another power-player in the south. This almost looks like a standoff.
Not only to Munich, but LITERALLY! around the corner of the CSU headquarters: https://www.openstreetmap.org/directions?engine=fossgis_osrm_car&route=48.1780765%2C11.5938809%3B48.177162%2C11.5908394#map=19%2F48.177770%2F11.592011

Yes, but irrelevant here. Their former HQ in Germany was just outside Munich in Unterschleißheim, well within Bavaria.
Bavaria has rarely shown smart political decisions in the last decades.
Kind of just did the worst move possible at every point since Bismarck showed up with a fun idea
The amount of hate i have for Söder could power a little village
Just not a Bavarian village. Renewable energy is too woke.
@GandalftheBlack and the hate/exasperation at Söder has auto-renewal guaranteed.
He is such a moron.
Most have them
Einstein's quote about infinite stupidity comes to mind....
The stupid ones are the people who keep voting for this party, though. Have a Hitler quote for that: "How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think." (apparently meant without sarcasm)
The politicians are just self-serving assholes.
This seems unwise.
Söder is not wise
Bye everyone I'm getting uploaded to the cloud apparently
Tschuss!
If you were a criminal convicted of espionage, then good luck to you for finding a job, especially in government. But if you're called Microsoft, then it's alright.
Like you know that the kid surely will hit the only lamp post on the whole parking ground while learning to ride the bicycle you know what happens when Markus Söder is in charge.
Of course Bavaria would.
No! Noooooo!
Germany should just abandon that state (and Saxony where all the Nazis are). Together, they are the bane of Germany. One holding it back and the other wanting to make Putin their savior.
Divide Germany you say? I feel like that's been done before
I guess that explains why there was a dude wearing a literal fucking Hitler mask at sachsonring this year....

Fick die bayern
Nochmal Bayern!
Wrong direction ↪️
Must be good beer.
Friends don't let friends get Microsoft software when they're drunk.
Bavaria has always been the special kid among the German federal states
Of course Bavaria. Everyone one else in Europe is thinking about moving away from US companies but Bavaria is killing of OSS initatives to move to the MS cloud...
Bavaria, the Texas of Europe
It really is. Nürnberg, München and Starnberger See are lovely though. Possibly other places too. But there's simply too much old money trying to cling to the status quo and not let go.
"giving a shit" means "caring about", I think you meant the opposite
Yeah in German, the phrase (einen Scheiß geben) means the opposite.
Probably wanted to say "shits on"
One would think that the former GDR would be doing this instead.
Now let’s please explain how that thought entered you mind and you then thought it plausible enough to state it publicly?
