Wtf happened to hangouts? How many video products does google have?


Meet is business oriented and offers features that Hangouts does not, e.g. dialing in via phone. It also requires a G Suite account (or did before COVID, IIRC).


Didn't hangouts have a business version as well?


That's the same product. It was renamed to Meet.


Hangouts is being replaced by Chat and Meet.


And Duo.


Hangouts is EOL :-(

We're being herded into the new more useless products.


Hangouts was always terrible and bloated. I miss Google Talk. Instead, we get something more terrible and bloated than Hangouts.


Instead of focussing on Google Talk we have at least 5 different Apps from Google pretty much doing the same thing.
