Roland Häder (roland)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:17:56 CEST Roland Häder @expatpaul It looks like it. So lets make sure, that #Google+ users are not ending up on #Facebook, better here in !gnusocial and #Diaspora. -
expatpaul (expatpaul)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:20:24 CEST expatpaul @roland I'm not sure how many people actually use G+ as their main social network. So most probably won't notice when it is fianally dropped -

laurelrusswurm (laurelrusswurm)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:25:58 CEST laurelrusswurm @roland The problem is that most g+ users are not capable (or think they are not) of setting up their own instance. Roland Häder likes this. -
laurelrusswurm (laurelrusswurm)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:27:20 CEST laurelrusswurm @roland if only a tiny fraction of g+ users flocked to Qwitter it would be swamped. Roland Häder likes this. -
Temporary Marjolein (mk)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:50:50 CEST Temporary Marjolein @expatpaul it was never actually *required* to have a G+ account when you set up an email: it was shoved in your face, but it was actually possible to decline. I have *never* had a G+ account or even a "Google profile". You had to be insistent, but it's always been possible. -
expatpaul (expatpaul)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:53:21 CEST expatpaul @mk Point taken, but it's still interesting that Google appear to be giving up on G+. -
Temporary Marjolein (mk)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 17:59:39 CEST Temporary Marjolein @expatpaul maybe - or they just finally realized that all this in-your-face of G+ was actually driving people away -

laurelrusswurm (laurelrusswurm)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 18:06:40 CEST laurelrusswurm @mk Actually before g+ google made me a profile whether I liked it or not, but gave me the option of assuming control, which I did. -
laurelrusswurm (laurelrusswurm)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 18:09:18 CEST laurelrusswurm @mk @expatpaul when I finally set up Google+ account a gmail account was forced upon me. -
Temporary Marjolein (mk)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 18:12:46 CEST Temporary Marjolein @laurelrusswurm no, it was possible to avoid that as well - just not easy ;-) -
Temporary Marjolein (mk)'s status on Sunday, 21-Sep-2014 19:12:00 CEST Temporary Marjolein @laurelrusswurm I never wanted or tried to set up a G+ account, so I don't have experience in that "direction"; I only encountered the 'create email' -> create profile = G+ account -

expatpaul (expatpaul)'s status on Monday, 22-Sep-2014 10:37:04 CEST expatpaul @inscius I still look at it every Noe and then, but it always feels a bit desolate. -
