If you will permit me to tout things I worked on while there, Opus seems to have been pretty successful? The final story has not yet been written on AV1, but it is still the best chance we have had for a royalty-free video format and thanks to YouTube, Netflix, Facebook, etc. now makes up a non-trivial fraction of the bits on the internet. That ought to be enough to get it over the "ever remotely panned out" bar. I find myself using WebRTC quite a bit these days, too, so happy to have been a (small) part of that.
