It’s not any different and that’s exactly the problem. Everyone is well aware by now that sometimes Google shuts down services. Been there, lived it. Writing low-effort comments about how Google often shuts down services makes the Google-related topics on Hacker News more tedious to read and you should stop doing that.

Better to share links to interesting and relevant content. News about what was happening with the SCO lawsuit was interesting back in the day. Low-effort complaints about it were not.

I appreciate your opinion, but not your commands about what I should do. I respectfully disagree - I don't think everyone is fully aware of all of Google's particular misdeeds and bad practices, and I don't think the tone around Google efforts is negative enough. My post is one of activism, not complaint.
