The Final Show.
In the final episode of Workspace Recap, Jesse and Steve reflect on their three-year journey of producing the show and announce a break to relax and explore new formats.

The episode then covers various updates, including the enforcement of two-step verification, an increase in the dynamic group limit, the Meet Add-on SDK in developer preview, continuous framing in Google Meet Series 1 room kits, and the ability to record and share name pronunciation. Other updates include easy access to people, documents, and building blocks in Google Docs, excusing assignments in Google Classroom, interactive questions for YouTube videos in Google Classroom, the Bitbucket app for Google Chat, and the profile discovery setting in Google Workspace. The episode concludes with a mention of the pause in the rollout of chat bubbles and a reminder to stay tuned for future updates.

Major Google Drive Issue, Google Investigating. How to Know If You Are Affected, and What To Do
Google Drive is having a potentially massive issue right now that we have to talk about. There are articles from several major publications talking about this and the situation is still being investigated. Many users are complaining that their Google Drives have reverted back to May and are showing no activity since then. There was a long Google Drive forum support thread that has since been locked and removed and a new document with just the support comment. We are also seeing some sync issues on Mac such as Finder showing Drive needs to be running to sync, however it is in fact running, and on my wifes intel mac, in finder, folders that are in drive, when new files are added to the folder, they are not uploading despite the app saying everything is synced. https://support.google.com/drive/thread/245861992/drive-for-desktop-v84-0-0-0-84-0-4-0-sync-issue?hl=en
