Meh. Not seeing the parallels between Domains and Cloud. Like comparing a Google Doodle’s ARR with Domains.

Did you miss that Google Cloud Domains is going down with this sale? It's not about drawing parallels, they're literally shutting down a core part of GCP.

> Just to be clear: this is not just the consumer product (with no Google Cloud connection) going away. Google Cloud Domains is deprecated and discontinued as part of this sale / shutdown.

> Google told employees internally: but not it’s customers. Yet.

I'm going to wait for the actual announcement from Google on that.

Gergely is pretty trustworthy when it comes to his internal sources. He's got a lot of connections and uses them very responsibly.

Gergely is kind of a clickbait farmer now. He had his moment last year.

That hasn't been my sense from following his (free) newsletter for a while, but ymmv.

Sure, he's had good scoops from time to time. I've also seen him claim stuff that never panned out.

The reason I'm waiting is that if/when Google confirms Cloud DNS (the nameserver functionality) is going away I can have a more productive discussion with my google cloud rep once things are announced officially.

How is it even possible that this can be an unanswered question?

How has there been so little and incomplete communication from Google about this?
