    I’m one of the morons who convinced my friends and family to switch to Allo. I’m gonna sit this one out.

      Me and my ex thought Hangouts was going to be discontinued so we switched to Allo, and then back to Hangouts lmfao

        Too true haha, I have a few contacts on Signal and Telegram but I blew my shot and I can’t blame the rest of my contacts for now wanting to switch again.

    Have not bothered with new Google products in years as I assume they will be shutdown by the end of the year.

    I used Chat the first time before they killed it, and then I switched to Hangouts which allowed SMS and chat which was very nice, and then I ignored Allo and Duo when they came out, and then Hangouts died and I went back to Messages and just stuck with RCS, and now what, Google wants me to go back to Chat?

    Didn’t Hangouts work? Couldn’t we have just continued to improve on Hangouts? Oh, wait, that would require some actual commitment to this nightmare of an ecosystem.

    Wait 6 months and Google will announce Chat is discontinued, as they integrate messaging functionality into a YouTube Music subscription!

    Sure, our eighth social media platform burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the ninth one stayed up! And that’s what you’re going to get lad, the strongest platform on these isles.
