How long before Google+ bites the dust? Sounds ludicrous, right? Until it happens. Lesson is: either pay for it, or support open source.

- kbutler 11y agoI'm not sure why the "If I pay for it, it will continue" meme persists. Your payment does not guarantee continuing availability. Many paid products and services vanish as well. Require open source.
- XJOKOLAT 11y agoTrue. No guarantees. However, my own anecdotal evidence tells me that everything I've ever paid for and cared about is still in existence (even the crappy little utility-apps). That's a far higher success rate than the company in question. And sure, there's a reason for that by the very nature of Google's business model and strategy. Doesn't mean I have to accept or like it.
