How long till Google buys this and shuts it down?

So long, DDG. Censorship before they even gained enough momentum to get users to stick will undoubtedly be the beginning of the end for them. Looking forward to the next Google competitor. Eventually, someone will get it right.

I think it went GA about 18 months ago, but I was being facetious more than anything. I just dont use Google products beyond maps, android and search when DDG doesnt do it for me these days. Can't trust that 1) it will still be around in a year or 2) they change the core product so much its unusable 3) can depend on any level of customer support for it

Wonder how long it will be before Google cancels it.

are we taking bets on when google shuts this down?

ocdtrekkie | karma 24767 | avg karma 2.6 · | 2019-11-01 13:07:00

I was hoping to have some time to transition off the platform before this went through. Any idea when the official "Google actually owns it" point will be?

I wonder how long until Google kills this product

This is a really interesting project, and I wonder how long until Google unceremoniously cancels it and drops support for anyone who's bought into it.

Good. Now when will Google shut down this service?

pikseladam | karma 128 | avg karma 1.13 · | 2022-05-03 15:42:57

I'm waiting for google to buy it and close it.

countdown to google pulling the plug on yet another app?

sgt | karma 7200 | avg karma 1.86 · | 2021-02-13 21:26:53+00:00

At some point Google will ask themselves why they are spending money on running Google Groups in the first place. They may just decide to pull the plug.

crystaln | karma 1635 | avg karma 2.87 · | 2019-04-12 06:55:03

Cool. I wonder when they will shut it down.

I largely ignore Google products announcements these days. Why bother getting excited about things that won't last?

Google will have definitely discontinued this project by then of course :)

whizzter | karma 1009 | avg karma 1.89 · | 2024-02-08 14:57:08

Seems like it's time to start taking bets on when Google kills it then?

serverholic | karma 932 | avg karma 1.38 · | 2021-02-16 19:56:21+00:00

Any bets on when google will discontinue this product?

nolist_policy | karma 1040 | avg karma 2.23 · | 2024-04-19 13:39:33

I wonder if Google is anticipating that they will be broken up.
