Here's a question about the future: If they'll be doing away with Collections, will the posts that are currently in a collection go away, or will they automatically shift into Public? 'Cause I've got a science collection that had 69,000 followers, so I put a ton of posts there and it'd be cool if I could keep them. I don't relish the thought of individually choosing "remove from this collection" on each of them.
Publicly shared collections will just become public posts. Same goes for those that were just 'public' within the gsuite domain. Privately shared collections will become visible to only you. As 'circles' and the related privacy options being removed from gsuite, it would not be possible to maintain private access to those collections.
ReplyDeleteIt was never possible for a GSuite user to have a private Collection shared outside the domain, so the only options are Public Collections and Domain-restricted (including Private within-the-domain) Collections.

Collections
Last updated: April 2, 2019
Collections will continue to exist on April 2, 2019, but will start being phased out in the future.
G Suite users won’t be able to:
Create new collections. Any existing collections will remain.
Add content to a collection that is not domain-restricted.
G Suite users will still be able to:
Add content to a collection that is domain-restricted.
Delete internal and external collections that they own.
