It really bothers me that people so closely associate these "Not Google" projects with Google. I've seen repositories with not even a README, any documentation, or so much as an explanation of _what the project even is_ end up on the front page of /r/programming just because "Wow it's a Google project!! so interesting I wonder what it does???"
Google is a _huge_ company, not everybody that creates something there is showing some internal direction of the company..
- sjwright 7y agoBut it doesn't say "Not Google", it says "This is not an officially supported Google product." I read that as saying "Google totally made this, but please don't call tech support if it breaks."
