😤 That feeling when your favorite project too goes in the graveyard...

🪦 Killed by Google

It has become a running gag to poke fun at Google and its track record of killing products people rely on.

Oh a new product from Google?
I wonder how fast they will kill it this time.

According to https://killedbygoogle.com/ it's no less than 285 products 🤯 that have known this fate.

So clearly it's a structural problem that never got adressed and the backslash from their (ex-)customers is well deserved.

It's fun. But also not so fun.

We do a curious job and that fate of seeing a beloved project goes to the graveyard await all of us!

We do our best to avoid that. And sometimes we do great things. But often it doesn't matter.

"Just focus on the bright side and move on. You have learned new things and your next project will only be better ☀️☀️☀️".

Sorry Joy, but sometimes it's your baby, and loosing your baby hurts.
Ever heard of the stages of grief?

Fortunately we are humans and we can create and share stories for fun and self-therapy.

Care to share yours?
