Noooo

This was like the one and only unequivocally nice and productive thing that Google did

If you fuckers take away Google Fonts next I’m gonna take a big shit outside your headquarters see if I don’t

Can you imagine all those cdn fonts breaking? Times new Roman for everyone!!

Only $4.85 per month (non commercial; otherwise contact us for enterprise pricing) if you want to keep it working. Very reasonable. Bulk discounts for multiple fonts. Sign up today.

I’ll just host them myself for that price.

At least we have font-family: sans-serif;

If they remembered to set that default. But I guess they deserve to be punished if they didn’t.

I think Flutter (made by Google) is pretty awesome.

Awesome you say? Sounds like a good candidate for being discontinued by Google.

Too late, the clock is already ticking. We only need to count the years after the fact when it hits Google Graveyard

Flutter and Dart have also seen significant hits, and frankly I think they're unlikely to see significant continued improvement.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) (1 children)

What kind of hits? I haven't heard anything.

In fact, they just released a video a month ago detailing some of the areas they're working on, including dart macros, their new impeller engine, performance updates for the web platform, and more.

Hmm. I recalled a story from 2 or 3 months ago about them having laid off the Flutter and Dart team. Looking at it more closely it looks like the story was actually just that they had laid off some staff from that team.

I will have a carpenter and a plumber redo my toilet so that I will forever be shitting in their general direction.
