Killing Google+ was the worst reputation loss in my eyes. I understand that some people didn't like it, but I personally liked it for pictures and tech stuff (I think even Linus used it). Not to mention, it almost brought proper comments to YouTube, one could discuss properly. So close.
It was the only true competitor to FB, it would've needed to steal more features from Facebook but with G+'s touch, but nothing happened for years, they lost the vision to topple FB.

- dredmorbius 7y agoThat was the stated reason. Given the dissembling surrounding G+ from the very beginning, credibility of that rationale is ... low.
