Yes but a couple being off doesn't make the rest of the comment less accurate. The change that has happened is no longer "Google kills everything" but more "Google merges products into each other half arsedly"

Maybe that's worse for you? Not for me to decide. I'm not using Google services as best I can either way because they're an advertising company, but I will stop my personal contribution prattling off the Google closes everything comments.

I speak only for myself, a pet peeve on this site is people thinking every comment is a proclamation from the almighty. I'm just a fat bastard sitting on a toilet reading HN, I'm not telling you what to do

For me it is a matter of investing time and interest into products. I still remember discovering Google Spaces and thinking that it was something I could actually use to plan activities and stuff, only for it to be cancelled in a couple of weeks.
