It was hilarious when the Stadia head tweeted that it wasn't going anywhere and then a month later it was announced that it's being shut down lol

It was... but it was also kind of sad as a former user... The platform actually had its serious upsides (portability, low device power draw, by virtue of streamed games not exposing the code to manipulation THE BEST anticheat you could ever imagine, etc).

I agree, I was a Stadia user as well. I had some nitpicks with it but it was a solid platform and I played several games on it.

Or these poor folks who got their games published literally 2 hours before the service died.
