Hi , I am new here and completely shattered. Countdown begins for G +.
Google knew it very well but not disclosed earlier. Can't really G+ be saved? I join this community. I Have to pay for it ? If yes then I will leave the community. Will tell story of my children about G+ . Members here can anyone pl suggest how to save my communities from the disaster? I will be loosing all my circles after August 2019. Google is the creator and destroyer.

My suggestion is to find another social media. Like discord, amino, google rewritten, or MeWe.
ReplyDeleteCheri Raptor Those are others pods of Google only. Who knows after some time they will drop a bombshell on us.
ReplyDeleteIf at all I find any suitable pod, but how to do with it ? Are those similar to Google plus ?
There is no charge to be here.
ReplyDeleteYou could buy a domain and use GSuite, but it wouldn't help, since you would only be able to use G+ within your own domain after next August, and there will be nobody else there Raima M

ReplyDeleteYou have a point. They might but at least have a back plan just in case. I have been here for 7 1/2 months and I’m scrambling to find a suitable place to call home. I can’t imagine how people who have been here for years are handling it.
You will find a way to call your own. Google rewritten is slowly trying to be google+ but that is one person doing it so it will take some time.
•Discord is a social media for gamers BUT I have seen and join many servers that create whatever they want however they don’t have the post public opinion.
•Amino is it own thing. You find communities. Join or create. But it is confusing on how to get around.
Minds is another network that might work. Not the same as G+ but has similar features. Here is some information on it.

My biggest concern over Minds is that they tout themselves as somewhere to earn for posting.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a spammer's dream to me.
Most Social platforms only focus on the positive benefits when they start up, and then have to scramble to deal with spammers and trolls as an afterthought, instead of designing counter measures in from the start Joe Carter
Julie Wills Most spammers look for free ways to game the system. there you either pay, or earn your keep by participating, which limits the reach. I have been there for more than a year. While I get some things in my feed I don't really want or care about, I would not call it spam the way we have seen spam here. It is my perspective. You might have another standard.
ReplyDeleteJoe Carter My contention is that the platform isn't yet big enough to attract hard core spammers.
ReplyDeleteThey want a large user base to target.
Julie Wills You might want to go with pluspora.com - pluspora It has G+ people jumping ship, but none of the spam, it is also small. Wherever you land, best of luck.
ReplyDeleteRaima M Google have reversed themselves on feature rollouts before. I've never seen the company reverse a product kill.
ReplyDeleteMake other plans.
