They sure are and it's much worse on Reddit.
With Microsoft's shrinking relevance to modern computing it's a given. They have billions in the bank so they might as well spend a few million on fake upvotes to give their products an illusion of popularity.
When your own former CEO calls Microsoft's current cloud numbers "bullshit", they probably are.

#8This is interesting when compared to Amazon Elastic Container Service because of Azure Container Service's support for native Docker clustering tools.
If I am developing user docker-compose, I want to deploy that way, too - at least until I reach scale, at which point I want scheduling and orchestration tools, e.g. Swarm.
For easier disaster recovery, it's very convenient if these scheduling/orchestration tools let you deploy in the same way cross-cloud-provider. Swarm can run on AWS/Azure/GCE/bare metal, whereas ECS (which doesn't support Swarm and has its own scheduling/orchestration toolset) can only run on ECS.
+1 to MS for thinking about native tooling up-front.

I'm a little curious. What part of Microsoft having container availability in it's cloud offering is not interesting (particularly given that it can run both linux and windows containers)?
In other words, what makes you assume that the upvotes are 'paid' vs people being interested in the technology?

One of our primary goals with ACS is to make sure we offered versatility with the platform. We wanted to support both a choice of orchestrators (DCOS and Swarm) and wanted to expose these open source solutions directly, enabling cross-cloud mobility.
