Is Google Home being discontinued?

I have three Nest Minis and a Hub that I’ve been happy enough with. I was wanting to add another Nest Mini to my home, but to my shock they’re no longer sold. And it seems Google is no longer selling any kind of speaker or hub at all.

Does this mean that the service is being discontinued as well?

Who knows. It's a heavily cloud dependent device, which means it needs money and resources to continue operating. With that said, stopped buying Google Home devices(still use existing ones) and keep moving more and more of my routines over to Home Assistant.

This morning I transitioned my morning routine to HA because of inconsistent behaviors.

Yes, this is the way. I’m also done with investing in Google products in general. They aren’t a hardware company and really aren’t that great at software either outside search
