What a weird framing? You say this as if gmail, android and chrome are all dead now. They’re still being used and improved. Even if they didn’t enter new “categories” they’re still in a lot of existing ones and very popular -like hundreds of million of users- even if alternatives exist.
First of all, Google Search has maintained dominance and relevance for decades. That’s no easy feat. They have news, patents, books, LLMs all added into it.
Google has a hugely popular cloud service. Especially if you include Google Workspace.
Obviously YouTube is huge and regularly gets new features. There is a YouTube app for almost every piece of hardware with a screen.
They have a pretty impressive mapping product suite. Everything from Google maps to Google earth and all their GIS products and tools (eg solar panels location SaaS).
The play store is huge. AND They have a huge variety of extremely popular consumer apps like Photos, Music, Home, etc.
