Should anyone build a product around Google APIs in 2020, given their record here?


What's their record abandoning actually used products? Sheets is literally 13 years old and is heavily used internally and externally. The odds of it going away are very small.

This "Google cancels everything" is pretty much a viewpoint I hear only on HN. I don't know what reality some people are living in.


So you're a Google fanboi. We get it.


They are playing the long game with their GSuite offering. 70% of the USA educational market migrated to Google last 5 years.


When you say educational market do you mean primary/secondary?

The three largest universities in my city recently moved from GSuite to Microsoft’s stack.


Mine moved in the opposite direction last year.
