Introduction – Microsoft Certified Trainer and Solution Architect
Hello everyone, I’m Patrizio Tardiolo Bonifazi, a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), Solution Architect, and Senior Engineer. I work extensively with Microsoft Azure, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Graph, Power Platform, Microsoft Teams Premium, Microsoft Entra ID, and DevOps practices, combining hands-on engineering with training delivery. I joined the Microsoft Tech Community to learn from others, share real-world experiences, and contribute with practical insights and best practices. Nice to meet you all!
Impossible to sign in with different user account
I use this browser with two MS accounts. The techcommunity does not let me choose the user account to sign in with! I'm forced to open a private window to sign in and write this feedback. So when clicking Sign In, it thinks I want to sign in with my M365 company account, and asks me to accept certain permissions. However, I want to sign in with my personal MS account. So I click cancel and get redirected to the home page. So, in order to visit the site with my personal MS account, must either use a private windows, or clear every single cookie for every single Microsoft domain, which is also NOT what I want to do. This is simply unacceptable and driving me away from using the techcommunity at all! I made a video for you to show you how broken the sign in flow is: https://i.imgur.com/KnxnPKM.mp4
Posts and comments not getting approved
Hello Tech Community Team, I’ve recently started contributing educational Azure lab posts to the Tech Community, but none of my posts or even my comments are getting approved or published — even after waiting more than 48 hours. I’m trying to actively participate and help others, and I want to make sure my account is not stuck in moderation or blocked from posting. Could you please check and let me know how to proceed? Thank you very much, Perparim Abdullahu
User Profiles
I thought the whole idea behind user profiles is to let users know a little bit about the person responding to their question/issue (i.e. background, qualifications, experience, etc.). That's what a dictionary defines as a "profile". Now I find my profile is only accessible to myself. I was told a change was made "to simplify privacy and security, so profiles now mainly serve as a personal space for managing your own activity and preferences." That just doesn't fit with the definition. If the information contained in a profile is to sensitive or personal for public viewing then it doesn't belong in a profile anyway. Please re-instate public viewing of user profiles.
Resolving Discount Conflicts: Applying a Voucher for the GitHub Exam
Hello everyone, I recently acquired a 100% voucher for the GitHub exam. However, when attempting to schedule it on the Pearson VUE portal and apply the coupon, a message indicates that it’s not possible to apply this coupon because an MCT discount is already applied. Could anyone help me or direct me to someone who can assist? I don’t want to lose my MCT discount, but I need to apply this 100% discount coupon. How can I resolve this? Thank you, Luiz Andrade
