They're not mutually exclusive. Google's search and advertising cash cow is so profitable, the company grows despite its boneheaded mistakes in so many other areas. If you read the article, every single developer mentioned they have no trust in Google not canning the service, and who can blame them? At this point, it's becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy.
- BigBubbleButt 7y ago> every single developer mentioned they have no trust in Google not canning the service I never said developers have faith in Google. I said shareholders do. My point is Google doesn't really care what developers think.
- GVIrish 7y agoBut that's kinda the problem. If Google doesn't care what developers think, they are very unlikely to succeed with Stadia.
- BigBubbleButt 7y agoI agree. I actually think Alphabet's long-term (10+ years) future is pretty grim.
- ClumsyPilot 7y agoIt doesn't untill it does. Their business depends on developers just like Lehman brother's depended on the mortgage market. Pride before fall, etc. You ignore facts on the ground at your peril.
