  Google has been using just “G” as a prefix for product names almost as long as it has existed. Remember Gmail?

    But didn’t it start as gmail? Gsuite started like that, idk what else there is. But transitioning from Google X to GX I don’t think is something they’ve done much if at all.

      Gsuite started as Google Apps for your domain

    Yo, it’s G cause it’s from the streets.

  Itll be in the dust bin 2 years down the road so yeah no one trusts google products to be long term.

    To be entirely honest I thought it had been already until just recently when I saw they wanted to expand to 10G networking. They’ve almost entirely stopped rolling out to new areas from what I can tell

      They just rolled out millions in new fiber lines in my area. I had them for internet since 2018, moved out of their area, and now I am in their area getting their service again.

      You are incorrect about that stagnation. Google has breathed new life into fiber offerings.

        Can I assume that you like their service?
