When I think of Google, killing products is one of the first things that come to mind.

I am surprised they weren’t already killed. Switched to Ecobee after the acquisition. I gave my friend my Nest. A year later there was a software problem, Google was like, it’s old, buy a new one. Glad I ditched it.

We try to avoid predictability on HN, which means we don't always need there to be someone making this comment every time Google sunsets a product. Yes, Google has shut down a lot of products. They've also launched a lot of products. It doesn't need a comment like this each time. Comments are always fine if they're thoughtful and substantive, but this kind of comment isn't one of those.
