“Downtime” is a meaningless metric. Actually working is what matters. And Meet just broke for me two weeks ago; the video didn’t work. Doesn’t matter it was technically “up”.

Availability isn’t the property of Google Meet that’s troublesome. Itinerant, schizophrenic UI is more its jam.

For me, call quality on Meet is absolutely the worst compared w/ Zoom and Teams

I think you misunderstood their post.

Probably, I still don't get it :D

The post was saying Slack and Meet are repeat offenders in terms of breaking users expectations or their workflows due to a change-heavy approach to product management, not that they break in the sense of going offline.

Thanks! I understand now
