"But what Google actually built was a fancier Reddit – a place to have interesting discussions with strangers with less anonymity, trolling, and nudity."
Actually it isn't. Reddit's information is incredibly well organized. If you want to be in the loop on something, there's probably a sub reddit that has a ton of people talking about it.
My G+ feed is an orgy of ads, huge images, and irrelevant posts. Some people and companies I follow are a firehose of information that is a pain in the ass to sort through. I thought I could use it as a sort of rss feed, but I was wrong.
The only reason I'm on Facebook is for my college friends, and Twitter I just use to post development and programming stuff and use as an RSS feed. Beyond that, social media does nothing for me. Since G+ started, its been useless for me.

- dredmorbius 13y agoI've also found a vastly superior experience, for both reading and posting, on reddit.
