I saw someone on Threads the other day say, basically, “I know GChat is technically still a thing, but does anyone actually use it?” Google sure hopes you do — and it’s turning it into something much more like Slack. The new thing is that you can pipe RSS feeds into Chat, where they can appear in real time in whatever group you want. It’s a good idea! We have a bunch of RSS feeds funneling into our Slack. But I’d rather just have Google Reader back.
