Are you using Power Platform Dataflows still? I was, too, but it's time to figure out an alternative instead of wishing they'd ever become governable, nor support proper ALM. Another dead feature in Microsoft's evergreen cloud: https://www.perspectives.plus/p/i-see-dead-features-dataflows
I've been telling people Power Platform Dataflows is a dead feature for 3 years at least. The Power BI blog now confirms that any non-Fabric Dataflow is in Legacy mode.
The Gen2 Fabric Dataflow doesn't even support Dataverse as a target.🙄 Not that the Power Apps portal would surface the new version anyway. So, it's not officially "legacy" - just dead.
Hey #microsoft #PowerBI peeps, WTF is this all about?
Excuse the poor picture quality - didn’t want to log into my social media on my work laptop 🤷♂️
🌜 Spent my Sunday evening diving back into some hands-on tech — got #CiviCRM running inside Docker with MySQL 8 and WordPress. 🎯
Setting up infrastructure to manage stakeholder input feels adjacent to data science — and refreshing, since I usually focus on ecosystem-building, research, and fundraising.
Nice to touch the backend again. 💻✨
