Sign in to Azure DevOps

The https://dev.azure.com URL redirects to the landing page for the Azure DevOps product. I used to promote this as an URL to use to login to the product.

 

Since this year the page is missing the "Already have an account? Sing in to Azure DevOps" link.
As far as I can see there is no way to login to Azure DevOps trough this interface now.
There is the usual "sing in" in the top right, which will redirect you to the azure portal (or at least for me it does). 

How are we supposed to login to Azure DevOps? 

Old login: 

 



  • The expected flow for logging in to Azure DevOps is by visiting the organization directly: https://dev.azure.com/<organization>.

    In case you're looking for a way to log in first and see the organizations you have access to later, you can try logging in to https://aex.dev.azure.com/. This gives you an overview of all the organizations you have access to as well as options to leave organizations or create new ones.

      OK thanks for the answer.

      I would say this is not a very customer friendly way. I'd love to see this button re-added for an easy way to access your service.

        who is the genius behind this?
        Microsoft is just going downhill.
        Even a simple login is now 10 times harder.

      Thanks for your answer. But microsoft seems to excel at shooting their regular customers in the knee with their needless changes to products.....
      what was wrong with logging into dev.azure.com and then seeing organizations you have access to?? why change that to aex.dev.azure.com.?? if i have 20 orgs am i supposed to remember every one of them or create 20 bookmarks on "internet explorer"? 😄
      i spent 30 minutes trying to get to the usual login page and finally landed in the techcommunity.

      if you have a tech community page on "how to find the login page to your website" you have failed.

      Why not thinking of a way to make it more difficult?
