Google is notoriously bad about this and gets negative attention from it, so the comparison isn't favorable, and the publicity is still wholly deserved.

Do you mean Google or GCP? We don’t see complaints about AWS because Amazon closes Dash buttons or Spark, and also Azure is not seen in any worse light due to Microsoft discontinues Skype and what not.

Can we name one remotely popular service of GCP that has been shut down at all?

I can't think of a single incident where GCP actually dropped a free tier; I actually see new free tier stuff added since the last time I looked. If you can provide some excellent links to reflect your view, that I've somehow missed along the lines; it would be interesting to compare.

Until then, I maintain the Docker publicity is undeserved and if I had to guess, was brought on by podman astroturfers who have been polluting the web the past 2 years claiming how great podman is.
