Dupe: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13428595

The other article's title is misleading -- the important details are that Twitter owned Fabric and Google owns Firebase.

This feels a lot like Twitter is sublimating.

Unlikely that we'll see improvements in Fabric services for a while... presumably, engineering resources will be focused on integrating with Firebase :(

Anyone recommend alternatives for Crashlytics & Digits?

for Crashlytics: try Apteligent (formerly Crittercism) (I used to work there).

For Digits - take a look at Twilio (more general voice & data APIs) and then absolutely Nexmo, they specialize in phone number authentication.

Google buys Fabric from Twitter
