Since this is cloud computing, they're here to stay.

2-5 years depending on how moderately successful it is.

You will start using after they discontinue?

I came here expecting this comment. It’s interesting that a tech vanguard community like HN doesn’t trust Google products.

https://killedbygoogle.com/

Their reputation is deserved. Google domains was killed only last year!

Google does kill a lot of products but that site rubs me the wrong way, they really stretch the definition of "killed" to run up the numbers as much as possible. Products that were simply rebranded or merged into another product are listed as "killed" even though they functionally still exist.

The old Google Drive desktop client is on there, for example, when they still have a Drive desktop client. You may as well list Chrome versions 1 through 122 as products they've killed by that standard.

Yes, thank you, I feel the same way. It's especially frustrating because I would really like to have an accurate and fair list that I can reference when I need that information, or refer people to it when their memories are short. It's very not helpful in its current form

It’s not that I don’t trust the products. I don’t trust the business or its C-level suite.

This is not the same Google of 2000s

We used to, until they canceled that trust

doesn't trust anymore

Edit: I don’t get the downvotes because I completely agree with the commentators that Google is unreliable. I almost pasted the killedbygoogle link myself!
