Proofing in the microwave changed everything for me

I always thought my dough needed a warm oven to rise, but my kitchen was too hot last Tuesday and the dough kept collapsing. Tried the microwave with a cup of hot water for 45 minutes and it came out perfect, fluffy and doubled. Has anyone else had better luck with the steam method over the oven?

Wait, is that just bread or did you find a cheat code? Same thing saved my sourdough last week.
