What's chat? Not gchat surely? Didn't hangouts migrate to meet?
- forgotmysn 3y agoI believe so. and while it's not significantly worse, it is worse. thumbnails don't populate as consistently, the menu has me full screening a chat sometimes, it's just not as nice.
- swyx 3y agothis chat thread is a perfect Google Chats meme
- ororroro 3y agoTogether Chat and Meet are the replacement for Hangouts. Meet is also the replacement for Duo.
- donny2018 3y agoAllo entered the chat.

- nytesky 3y agoExcept meet is a passive teleconf service; duo allowed you to make Video CALLS, like FaceTime. Google Voice seems to have been added to Enterprise, so I cross my fingers it will prevail.
- Infernal 3y agoLol, so this is the reason I could “call” someone on MS Teams, but in my new org on google chat when I choose to “meet” with someone it just pops a link into their DMs. Bizarre.
- mavhc 3y agoIf I'm in a 1:1 chat with someone on GChat then the phone/video button just starts a call
- Infernal 3y agoInteresting. The only button I have in a 1:1 GChat is a video camera with a plus in the middle, and it simply creates a google meet link which I then send to the other person, and then we both join that link and are talking. The MS Teams functionality was more like a call - I hit the button, and I am in a video chat, and the phone is ringing on the other person's end. Maybe it's just my org's config but I don't have an equivalent function in GChat.
- hgsgm 3y agoChat can make video calls like Duo/Meet. Meet is for (planned) Meetings. Chat is for text/audio/video chats/calls.
