Is there a company with as many L’s to their name as google, at least in the same time frame that google has been a big time player :doge
people say the new Google logos are bad, but damn look at that old Gmail logo :yuck
In the mid-2000's, I was such a google fanboy. I was desperate for them to takeover the monopoly MS had on PCs.
Having endured all the MS bullshit my entire life as a PC enthusiast, I really thought they would be able to do it. But they could never really carry that early success over into other products. There was always something missing or out of step with what people wanted.
Most of us aren't stunted enough to stan a tech company of all things hard enough to remember all of their dumb misfires.
That's what video games are for.

I used to be that way with Adobe. I had hoped that adobe would enter the OS business come on because your stuff was so original, clean, and consistent. Having been on board with Adobe since Photoshop 1.0, Illustrator, and even their purchase and dismantling of Aldus Freehand, I was stunned by how excellent their consistent user interface was. In contrast, at the time macOS was unreliable and difficult to get to work. A number of Vulcan nerve pinches were required for keyboard commands to start the iOS without extensions running and interfering with each other.
Now I look at Adobe and I am shocked at how far they have fallen. I would almost guess they have more lawyers working for them than engineers at this point. The types of changes they have made to their product line have been a reduction in overall value for them, especially considering they have leapt headfirst into the subscription model for software.
