I guess they just don’t want users anymore.

Actually, they do; it's just that Google has become a bit short-sighted. They've started prioritizing short-term revenue over long-term growth and user experience.

They seem to have forgotten that focusing on the long term and prioritizing user experience were the key factors that made them an internet giant in the first place.

In any case, Google is a sinking ship. I'll give them a max of seven years before they become the next Yahoo if they keep making incompetent decisions like this.
