I don't even use any Apple products, but I still gotta agree with all this.
How they didn't do an iMessage style client better than Apple given the fact Hangouts was right there and superior in every way for so long is just.... bleh.
Google is losing it. Android is losing more nerd functionality and just copying iOS... but poorly. YouTube Music was better as Google Play Music. "Chats" was better as Hangouts. Where Google Fi at? Where Google Fibre gone? How's Google+ going?
Even their search results are mostly spam now.

Enshitification
This isn't even enshittification, this is just Google still not having their shit together somehow after all these years
They definitely integrated hangouts and had video calling. Apple didn't open up their ecosystem so you just couldn't call them. Why has Apple still not provided a service similar to hangouts?
