Comment on Google kills two-year “Pixel Pass” subscription after just 22 months

I used to be all in with Google. After being burned over and over again, I’ve nearly entirely exited their ecosystem with some exceptions. I just don’t trust them anymore to maintain their products for the long haul.

Yeah I moved to Apple last year.

The garden walls may be higher but at least I don’t have to worry about the plants being chopped down.

  Yep. I switched too. It’s nice to have resale value and a decent camera. I feel like every android phone I have had has a major decline in camera quality over time. I haven’t experienced that with my iPhone. I also like how easy it is to add new devices to the eco system. I used to be an apple hater but no longer. I just need shit that works, I don’t give a flying fuck about “oPeN dEvElOpMeNt.” I text, browse, take pics and listen to music on my phone. That’s it. I don’t need to ability to hack the pentagon with my fucking phone.

    I think the pixel 7 has the best camera around, that narrative changed a generation ago

    That narrative still exists. Pixel 7 is one phone. The rest of them (Samsung, lg, etc) have degrading, shitty ass cameras.

I used to be a huge google supporter, and I’ll still take android every single day over an iPhone… but other than that google could go burn for all I care.

I’d like to exit Google, but Gmail makes this oh so hard. I’ve been using Gmail since over 20 years, basically my life is on that service. How did you migrate off Gmail?

  Just… export the emails and most systems will have a way to import old emails.
  
  Hell for work I’m in the middle of migrating emails sent on a platform, logged on a secondary platform but stored on a third, to a fourth platform via CSV only.

  There are ways to forwards all your emails into a new email address i think. Google it.
