Indeed. Most of the commenters here really have no clue of what it going on and are just reacting to the headlines.

I'm very delighted that I bought GOOGL stock at $95 when it fell after everyone panicked at their Bard demo a year ago. [0]

I'm bullish on GOOGL - Gemini 1.5 Pro is insanely good! GCP is also democratizing the cloud; I think the market share will only increase.

But isn't that exactly the problem with Google?

Everyone wants their shares to go up, more growth, which can then lead to questionable actions on their part. Did you see the recent article about search enshittification (tldr; to make key metrics go up, make search worse so that users have to make more queries to get what they want)?
