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

Any hype it had was killed by the gated access that required invites. Plus, Facebook didn't have your racist uncle on it yet. It was still fun.

Google+ was so weird, for a considerable amount of time it was invite only, you needed some form of connection to get in – turns out this wasn't great as they assumed it would be. I can only assume that is the reason they pulled a massive U-turn and decided to foist it upon anyone and everyone after the fact, which, it would appear, was also a bad idea.

It had some cool features, like how you could group/rank who you were following. It was just missing users

I think the best allegory I saw was someone trying to get into an exclusive club with a really long line. They finally get in and the place is empty so it sucks

I'm wondering if Bluesky is doing the same thing to itself

Had a big following on G+, did a few courses and had a lot of fun in that network. Still friends with many of the people I connected with on there.

Never quite got that feel on Reddit and Lemmy won’t have it either because identities are hidden. But that’s OK, all platforms have a purpose.

I still can’t stand Facebook. Even though it makes me money, I feel the ick being on there every time.

If it's anything like what "All" shows me, it will be mostly furries, sissies, anime, and 196 with just a splash of conservative. Unless you block it, Lemmy got some weird shit yo.

Lemmy will be a dinosaur like hacker news and we'll all use a bunch of different softwares to connect to the fediverse
