That lists just about everything even if an app just got merged 1:1 into another app. It's so dumb and doesn't even add context, may be valid to add in this case but often it's just dumb

It also lists previous versions of things that still exist. They have Angular listed as killed by google because Angular 2 replaced it..

Or listing the lite versions of apps which became obsolete when phones were able to run the full app.

Isn't that part of the meme? Why does Google have so many similar products that it's possible to merge them 1:1?

The whole discourse around “google kills all their products” is just dumb. This is sitting at the top of hacker news right now with 90-some points, for an announcement about shutting down a service that nobody uses or has even heard of before.

Just because people love this meme
