haha here comes the anxiety

i think this one will stick around longer though, i noticed that they have a separate app Google Chat, but now the Gmail app have it baked in next to the inbox.

pretty sure there's a massive use case too, whenever I do interviews a decent fraction of companies insist for google meet instead of zoom etc

Prob cuz they're cheap and it comes with Workspace.

The Gmail chat inside Gmail isn't new, BTW. It's been there for like a decade or longer, but it keeps changing and losing compatibility with other services. I wouldn't rely on it for anything long term.
