Oh yeah, I totally agree.
The vast majority of our core / 'modern' systems utilise SSO and MFA.
Although, I work for a 100+ year old manufacturing company... I have weekly "WTF" moments, when finding something tied to a legacy system or process - After prodding you normally a response of "I...
Recently configured and deployed my first VMware vSAN cluster... VMotion'd all the production VM's over from the legacy hosts last night - No complaints, nor did anybody on-site notice :)

Seen it many times...
Been there... Severs named after knights of the round table, Star Trek characters, Trains or some random location abbreviation.
And pretty much nothing documented, all tribal knowledge - This was an Enterprise organisation FFS!
Worked in IT for 17~ years (Sometimes feels like 50 years!)... Started as an application analyst in 2007, cut my teeth and progressed into operations / site support for an engineering consultancy, moved into an infrastructure engineer role on the server & storage side, dabbled in data centre...
I bought it on release, similar experience / view to you regarding the bugs! - Also I was playing on Xbox One X.

Called in Richer Sounds earlier... One left of the model I was eyeing up online. Fitter like a glove in my 3 series [emoji28]

I installed the Hub 5 last Friday, you then return your old Hub in the provided box (pre-paid courier label inside).
Just received my free Hub 5, cannot see it making much difference (As I run in Modem mode)... Looking at specs, compared to my old Hub 3 the biggest difference is the jump to Wi-fi 6 and a faster 2.5Gbps ethernet port.
From day 1 I've ran my Virgin Hub in Modem mode... Utilising my own TP-Link router and OneMesh wireless repeaters around the house.
My router is approx. 3yrs old and a basic model, I'll probably upgrade at some point - but honestly I've had zero issues.
Current deal was set to expire 30th Sept - I called virgin, went through the 32434653464 options to reach retentions/cancellations team.
Explained I wanted to renew my deal before switching to standard rate, times are hard, trying to cut costs etc. After a quick conversation she agreed to match...
