https://killedbygoogle.com/ contains Nexus. That was clearly replaced by Pixel.

Disclosure: I work at Google, but not on anything related to this.

Honestly some of the things that website includes seem a bit wacky to me.

I feel similarly about the Google Home Max. Was it really killed in 2020, if the latest version of the firmware came out in 2022? Can we say that Google killed the Pixel 4, since the hardware is no longer being sold but it's still receiving updates?

The inclusion of Angular 1 is also kinda questionable to me. Even though Angular 1 code isn't totally forwards compatible, there is a pretty clear migration path for moving to Angular 2 and beyond

I know many Angular 1 devs that would disagree, and who moved away from Angular all together do to the changes with Angular 2

to them, google killed Angular.

No... Sorry just no

Nexus line was an Affordable/ value reference implantation of Android

Pixel is an overpriced atrocity marketing platform for Google.

Pixel IS NOT a replacement for Nexus

I think the Nexus 6 cost $50 more than the Pixel 6 does, even before you take inflation into account

Might be true for Nexus 6, but Nexus 4 was from $299 at launch and had flagship specs. Nexus 5 was $399, again an affordable phone.

The Nexus 6P has the same spec's as the FlagShip Pixel for 1/2 the price

The "a" Pixels are pretty much in the same space as Nexus was.

So, every time a company increases prices, it "kills" something? By that logic, every company kills nearly everything, every time.
Re:Killed by Microsoft by syshum on Monday March 28, 2022 @09:27AM (#30830308)
When they double the price, in a single year, with no real spec increase, and no other justification other than profits

yes that it killing it
