I liked the idea of circles. I'm part of multiple social circles and what might be interesting for one could very well be meaningless for another circle.

/u/Omsorg@lemmy.world Are you on Diaspora? I heard that's where most of the Google+ refugees ended up.

I also liked YouTube chat. I had Messenger at the time, but I could contact my family on YouTube chat too. So I deleted my Facebook account and switched to chatting over YouTube. Then they shut it down, so I just let it be and stopped talking with my family.

I can't remember much of it. But I was using it everyday.

I never used Google Plus, what did you like about it?

The "circles" were awesome. It was a breeze to tweak your feed based on which circle you put someone in. Rather than get all the posts from a very hit or miss account I could pretty much say "only the top posts".

Eventually, Facebook and Twitter copied the feature, so Google+ lost its advantage.

per post scoping was nice.

I didn't have to manually tag each account, just select the circle and publish.
