It's not just the 'Youtube thing' (as derisive as that sounds), it's that G+ has supplanted many services I used to use and enjoy. So now I have fewer services with constant nag screens prompting me to use something in which I have no interest. So net result of the G+ 'experience' is that I lose services and have the quality of those that remain impaired.
