    That’s not fair to Google+.

    I actually liked that platform over Facebook.

    It’s a shame they had to cram it down people’s throat. It would’ve been a fantastic alternative to Facebook. I especially liked it’s friend organization feature with circles.

      It was really much better than fb and other platforms, really easy to group and filter content on it.

      I just hated their forced integration with YouTube comments section which only served to artificially pump up the number of G+ users. Great platform, bad management decisions.

          Funny that Blue Sky just did that same old thing. Launched like a VIP club with a limited guest list. Even though that tactic hasn’t really worked well for most people since the 00’s.

            also - blue sky was eating glue while twitter was falling and lost a lot of attention to threads
