Google is laying off employees at Waze

Google is laying off employees at Waze. The company is moving Waze over to Google’s ads system, and that change will mean job cuts at Waze. Google folded Waze into its Geo group in December.

I know it's due to role redundancy, but ever since Waze was pulled more closely under the Google umbrella, every change they make worries me.

It sucks I use Waze daily and I know maps is t going to have all the same features just like they promised Gmail would get everything from inbox

For the longest time, I held on to Gmail, but honestly it’s been surpassed by Hotmail. The sweep feature is very useful in keeping the unread count down. Besides mail and search, I consider every other Google service temporary.

I used to love me some Inbox for Gmail.

How about some Google Wave? No? Just me?

I played Dungeons and Dragons on it! I cried because I lost all those adventures and dialogue between characters. I try to do the same with discord but it's just never been the same. It was truly innovative but that might just be a rose tinted view.
