Worse is the dozens of communications platforms they've launched, renamed, launched competing platforms and abandoned them all... I've been a Voice user since it was Grand Cetral... TBH, the best time for Google comms was when Hangouts kind of took over text + gvoice and integrated contacts into a shared interface... then they broke it up, reduced features and shuttered it altogether. There have been like 3 since. And that's in a single related space.
Not sure what I'll do if/when they shutter GVoice, probably try to cobble something similar for myself with Twilio, or at least that's my near term plan, only hoping one can create a dialer app for Android that does the same kinds of things.
- sorokod 4y agoWell, Google Spaces are back from the dead, so there is hope...
- metadat 4y agoHope for what? :) Every new thing Big-G launches (or relaunches) is yet another statistically-likely-to-be cancelled thing in the future. I'd love to have more hope, but I'm observing the same mistakes playing out over and over. If this were a human relationship, I'd respectfully choose to go out separate ways. Unfortunately not a realistic option at this point, the Tech Titans have sunk their teeth into nearly everything on the net and acquired or suffocated the smalls.
