Killed by Google VS rowy

Their reputation is deserved. Google domains was killed only last year!

And this isn't even the first time I've been burned by Google's decisions. If you're familiar at all with the Google Graveyard, you'll know that Google has a long history of killing off products and services that people have come to rely on. This has happened to me a number of times, in both a personal and professional capacity, and frankly it's getting old.

Just because Google has a couple of decent services that you're willing to pay for doesn't detract from the fact that most of their products have a worse life expectancy than a victorian child in the 1800s. https://killedbygoogle.com

They ruined every single opportunity to be more than an advertising company since Orkut. With scrapped attempts, starts and lack of intention for most of the 2010s to even during the early half of the Pixel Era, they seemingly haven't learnt to stick to something and iterate on it well.

And the fact that over 50% of their revenues come from search and by extension, advertising.

The fact' that til this day, they still haven't evolved from the "throwing shit at the wall then at the fan" strat which explains how they have fumbled so much so quickly.

Yeah. The Google Graveyard really shows how far this can go.

The punchline is that in addition to hundreds of failed hobby projects, their stock is doing great. Monopoly power is a helluva drug.

To me Gemini is just sort of generic and uninteresting. There has to be hundreds or thousands of products and companies based on the name "Gemini" - "Bard" was at least interesting, different and distinct.

I've no idea about the quality of the product itself, I have never had a reason to use it. It's long past cliché now but I wouldn't get too attached to a Google product that is definitely costing a lot of money but which has no clear pathway to turning a profit. I think they will keep it ticking over until the hype train moves on from Chatbots/LLMs, and then it'll join the Google Graveyard @ https://killedbygoogle.com

We're not talking about reliability, we're talking about Google's penchant for killing established products that people use. https://killedbygoogle.com

We are the team behind Rowy.io and today we are super excited to launch BuildShip. BuildShip was created with all the feedback we got from the amazing community of no-code/low-code builders using Rowy and months of hard work by the team.

Rowy - Open Source Alternative to Airtable

You can checkout opensource project Rowyhttps://github.com/rowyio/rowy - it a spreadsheet UI for database and can do databasy things like you said!

formulas but in JS/TS,

I want to build an application as soon as possible, I don't care to be employed by a company or be a "complete" software engineer. I have a service which provides the bank-end (rowy.io) but need help building the app/front-end. Are there any recommendations or tutorials out there for learning enough to build an app/learning which questions to ask open.ai in order to help? I just want to build out my idea as soon as possible

Just thought will put it out here as it seems like a pain point we also faced when trying to use Firestore console UI...trying to manage the data/find it etc was a pain :( So we built an open-source spreadsheet-like UI to manage your Firestore data as easily. Hope you find it useful :) Website: https://rowy.io/ Github: https://github.com/rowyio/rowy
