Firing the sales team = less income = some higher up will see declining profits = it will be killed

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
Oh, nice. I might have to switch my organization over. Thanks!
that’s okay! there are other great alternatives: the folks over at [email protected] 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
Of course, because the .dev domain was directly created and operated by them, like .zip and .mov
Anyone selling a .dev domain was just reselling from Google domains under a white label agreement
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
My understanding is they’re still around for a few months while they work out transferring everything. They’re probably trying to squeeze as much out of it they can.
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
I bought a domain from them right before the announcement, should’ve gone cloudflare
Yeah, I had a domain through Google Domains that I just moved to Porkbun based on this news. Sucks, but Porkbun is cheaper anyway.
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.
There’s probably some scummy reason for it, we just don’t know why.
