I absolutely love that people aren't just forgetting about Reader.
- Laremere 14y agoIt's precedent that Google is willing to take down a popular service in order to push other goals.
- mkr-hn 14y agoThis is something a lot of people miss. No one minds Google shuttering Reader for good reasons, but they failed to communicate said reasons, and left us to speculate. That speculation has settled on things that make a lot of people feel bad about where Google is heading.
- lawdawg 14y ago1 million active users is not "popular" in Google terms. So-called tech "influencers" like to believe that they are more useful/valuable than any random user, but guess what, you aren't.
- badgar 14y agoIf you read HN, you're worth at least 10 users. We're special!
- jamesaguilar 14y agoTo say that people aren't forgetting reader would be calling the game in the first inning. It isn't even actually shut down yet. Check back in a year when everyone has switched to other news readers and the world hasn't ended.
