Google has killed about 5x more things people love than FB has created. But they still keep a lot of core products alive.

Ok, I admit you have a good point. I counted the ones I can remember:

- search (although this one barely qualifies in my opinion)

- GMail/GSuite (once provided ever increasing storage, also killed free GSuite etc etc but I'll count it, it exists and has even expanded a bit)

- YouTube

- Ads

- Android

- Chrome

Quite a portfolio actually. Says something about how much I dislike them when I had to think long and hard to admit it.

Maps and docs as well. While Facebook is the king of time wasting apps, Google is the king of useful apps. They might abuse their role a bit, but at least the products are things that helps people.

And now that I think of it GCP is still alive, for now at least.
