Google kills everything it touches
https://killedbygoogle.com/ is a great site to see them all. It's A LOT.
Damn, I missed the news about Google domains. That sucks. Squarespace domain pricing is typically pretty high.
Switch to cloudflare, they recently started with domains
that’s okay! there are other great alternatives: the folks over at selfhosted@lemmy.world generally agree that porkbun is excellent (and i’d agree with them)
Yeah it’s super frustrating too because google was one of the few places that you could get a .dev domain, and square space isn’t exactly the most logical place for a developer’s sight
Wait are we sure about Google domains? I literally just saw an ad for it yesterday.
Confirmed by Squarespace: https://domains.squarespace.com/
Wild they are still running ads
Marketing team didn't was aware yet or forgot to turn off the campaign when reassigned
For stadia, a game dev said that they were shocked by reading the announcement on Twitter, as they spoke with some stadia engineer about their game port to stadia only three hours earlier
Looks like when Google decides to kill a product, only a few managers know it
Pretty sure if this was any other industry there would be a lot of shit thrown, but because its Google they somehow get away with it.
Wait, why the fuck would they kill off Google Domains? It's incredibly competitive when you compare it to Namecheap and Porkbun imo.
Sold to Squarespace for some reason.
Why are they doing this. Waze was such an amazing tool
They've integrated what they want into Maps navigation. Now they want you to switch and be happy about it.
No they didn't. They show traffic info from Waze in Google Maps, but the navigation is still the old one, not the Waze one.
@KazuyaDarklight@lemmy.world didn't say Google implemented everything... Only that Google has implemented what Google wants.
Title is clickbait, they are laying off the ads department and using Google's.
Google maps is pretty damn good though - but I do like Waze for road trips

Google cross Reddit when?
