Google abandons Nik Collection

[Chris Kennedy]

Apparently what people have will still work, but no more updates or support.

This was pretty much inevitable when Google took over and eventually made them free. They have a history of dumping software.

Anyone here using this stuff?

I use it on just about a daily basis. Not every image gets the Nik wash, but most do. Very versatile set of software.  It was only a matter of time before this happened.

I use it for almost every image I edit.

I use it as well...

Google is not the only company that buys software for the technology.  Pretty common practice.

They have not updated it in a couple years.

They just decided to make it official, with a press release, that it was no longer being supported.
