To us and everyone else, no. To their weird corporate thinking, still no. Given hardly any money, they expected it to take over PS/Xbox within months, and didn't market it to anyone correctly. Seriously, they marketed it to people who already had big gaming rigs, why would anyone give that up?

Indeed. My PC has a decent enough GPU and I also own a PS4. The Stadia exclusives at the time was not enticing enough for me to try, let alone paying $9.99 per month.
