I don’t really know what is the problem with google+ except they are born in the wrong time where Facebook are still on the rise, instagram is new and trendy and Zuckerberg is not dreaming on metaverse

    One of the things that probably killed it was Google enforcing people to use their real names on there. Which of course affected also commenting on YouTube as well.

    I quite liked Google+ overall. Would have been good to have a proper competitor to Facebook.

    I never had my real name on it. Someone said it was based on the real name field of your email address, but I also never had my real name in that.

    Sometimes when I leave google reviews, the business owner will respond and be like "Thanks for the 5 star review, Firstname!"

    Ive been using Firstname Lastname since I was born, which was 01/01/1900.
