Which is probably why webp still exists.

Most of the other things killed by Google follow this trend. Stadia is a glowing example of this self fulfilling prophecy.

Though, in the case of stadia, IMO, they should have probably worked harder to let people know that as long as you have a Google login and something to play with, you could have tried it without buying anything. There were a number of trials on the platform that were free to play. Since people didn't generally know that, a lot were relying on reviewers to form an opinion, and most of the reviews were early access and wrought with issues that were quickly fixed.

I miss stadia.

Comparing any of the services or applications that Google has created to a file format is not a fair comparison at all.
