But that Hangout is not this Hangout. This is a Slack competitor. Same name different product.

The slack-competitor app is only available on G-Suite and recently dropped the "Hangouts" from the name (now just "Chat" instead of "Hangouts Chat").

no, this hangouts is still that hangouts. the slack competitor is "hangouts chat", the regular old hangouts app from 5 years ago is still going strong and most likely what somebody is talking about when they talk about hangouts.

IIRC, hangouts chat is still only available to paid g-suite customers.
