It's almost like they've been working for quite some time to close the gap between Google Accounts and Google Apps Accounts. Insane!
Like, probably 80% of their stuff works transparently with either type of account. It kinda seems to stand to reason that their HUGE project that integrates most Google services into it and is the new "main way" of accessing your account... may not have had the attention to make it fully compatible with a small subset of their users.
That, and it definitely warrants a post containing 2 explicatives being the top comment on this post? (edit: I'm not upset with the language, I'm just surprised. I'm used to the shorter more explicative posts being discouraged. I, myself, don't mind, like I said, just surprised.)
- knowtheory 15y agoExcept that it's not just their most recent massive service. The constellation of services and notifiers and tools that they produce, none of them, whether they are new releases (in which one would think they would be aware of the existing difficulties apps users have) or older systems with more storied release histories, give google apps users a fair shake. On top of that their migration plans for moving from apps accounts to full accounts are unclear and continually moving targets. It really is awful. And who gives a fuck how much swearing a post has? :P
- drivebyacct2 15y agoI don't disagree with your statements. I guess I just reacted by not using Google Apps and transitioning my users back away from it. While I do understand that that's not possible for businesses that have committed on a wider scale (and with less tech-savvy users), I guess I'm trying to remain optimistic that Google is sincere in their efforts to blur or eliminate the distinction between Google "proper" accounts and Google Apps accounts.
