Killed by Microsoft is the open source list of dead Microsoft products, services, and devices. It serves as a tribute and memorial of beloved services and products killed by Microsoft.
This really doesn’t hit quite as hard. Googles page is just 53 variants of hangouts that each lasted less than 2 years. This is “after 18 years and a full decade of phase out, teams replaced Skype”.

There’s plenty of great stuff in there; I especially recommend filtering for dead hardware.
But killing MSN Messenger for Skype is a much greater crime against Humanity than any of Google’s, except maybe for Google Reader.
