"Atlassian Cloud ToS section 3.3(I) prohibits discussing performance issues" - Their ToS may prohibit it, but that is in no way going to stop me from doing it - I don't give a shit about some document they write. Atlassian products suck hard and their performance characteristics are horrible. I hate being forced to use their crap at work.
- Hamuko 6y agoThe problem with Atlassian's Terms of Service is that most of their end-users are not paying for the software and do not really care if they violate an agreement they were either forced to make or which someone made on their behalf.
- jjuhl 6y agoBe honest; noone cares about (or reads) ToS agreements.
- Hamuko 6y agoNo one cares to read any Terms of Service agreements, but I think Atlassian's products face another tier: not caring to adhere to them at all. I'd personally find it pretty funny to go up to my boss and tell them I can't read my Jira tickets because Atlassian banned my account. Or would they ban the entire organization instead? Either way, hilarious.

- saagarjha 6y agoThe thing we’ve constructed of users not owning their content that they post on platforms and then holding the ability to lock them out of access to it arbitrarily is really one of the worst things that has happened to the web.
- LeoNatan25 6y agoLegislation is overdue for this. US might be a lost cause, but in EU and elsewhere in the world, this can be greatly remedied.
- jerf 6y agoI don't think it applies to us. Our employers can sign whatever they like and constrain us from speaking in official company-related capacities, but we're no more bound to that as individuals then we're bound to anything else our companies sign as individuals. As individuals, we're not in a relationship with Atlassian at all.
- lostdog 6y agoMaybe you'll get lucky and they'll ban you from using their products!
