Please tell me someone remembers Google wave and the insane amount people were paying on eBay for an invitation. (Sorry, just randomly remember it when I saw Google+)

The difference is that Google+ tried to be Facebook. And Lemmy is just Lemmy.

I'm still wishing the internet could go back to how it was in the 90's so I'm hoping it will continue to look the same in 12 years.

12 Years ago.. I've zero interested in Google+

Probably merged with all the other ActivityPub frontends into a single, hyper-customizable mega-app.

Google+ was too much of a copy of the existing social networks at the time.

I'm still a Google Reader orphan though.

Hopefully more content and more simplicity. I haven't experienced much of either yet. There's tons of threads about how great Lenny is but I'm just not seeing it yet ¯\(ツ)/¯

Does anyone remember the asian (?) Platform "multiply", long long ago, where you could upload music for your friends? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiply_%28website%29?wprov=sfla1

I really liked it back in the day, then it died. I hope Lemmy will preservere...

I just get never get any of my friends to use Google +. It was just me and a few of my tech nerd friends.
