It was still up for years, and unlike stuff like google+ it didn't need a critical mass to become popular. I wonder if the successors will be a thing.

>tell all my friends to use Google talk
>setup xmpp clients
>no more talk enjoy your hangouts lol fuk u

Thanks googoo

Google are killing drive app, never trust Google they went full retard.

Just realized allo and duo are phone locked and won't work on non-phone tablets. DROPPED. Funny how only messenger remains the sane option alongside telegram which no one uses.

>android in 2017
lmao just stop being poor

xmpp hangouts also never worked with group chats

I don't understand why they don't have a proper client on PC, you can only use it in a tiny little window on Gmail

>t.middle class faggot that bought an itrash on 12 payments
Every single year the most superior phones are on android. Show me one year when a non android phone had better specs than the flagship samsung. Fapple and microshit can't compete. Keep buying shiny trash while I buy the best and most capable phone every year in cash.

Google killed it: first by assigning the pooest development team available on their hands, and second (and definitively) by removing sms functionality from it.
I was using Hangouts and pushed it to all my acquaintances, but I've moved to a Signal/Whatsapp combo, fuck Google.

>>62314603
but the high end android phones cost more than iphones...

But I thought they killed it? Why is it still alive?

>>62314841
this. you can't use Hangouts for SMS anymore and it's fucking stupid

>>62314697
Oneplus 5 has better specs than your samshit for less eurobucks, without getting cucked by a 24 month plan as a plus

i used it for years
then they "updated" it by separating hangouts & sms integration
i still used it even thought they gimped it
then they decided to "update" it once again by removing SMS all together
and now i use an ad supported SMS app.
>i have to see ads just to view SMS

>>62314829
see

It's 530€ for the 128gb version (thats about 560 freedom money)

>ad supported SMS app

Why not just use messenger???

Have fun getting all your data harvested anon.

>>62314884
>now i use an ad supported SMS app
why do you do that? are you stupid?

>>62314867
My point still stands: android phones always have the superior model every single year.

>>62314918
i like Textra.
searchable SMS.
i should just pay the $3.

>>62314934
Yes, but I don't want that everybody thinks "best android = samsung" because Samsung is actually pretty shit

>>62314962
Almost all sms apps have that functionality, try Messenger and Signal and see if you like them. If not, pay or pirate Textra, using add-supported software is 100% retarded.

It's being murdered by Google. The new policy for system updates now is to delete Hangout if it's never updated. Forced downgrade from settings ("Uninstall Updates" button) also counts.

It's slow
