G+ wanted to be a rendezvous for all social/sharing activities on Google, and it turned out that many users didn't like it. Would G+ have fared better if it didn't force G+ onto every Google property? Maybe? It's easy to do armchair analysis, but hindsight is 20/20.

- threeseed 11y agoThere is no 'hindsight is 20/20' here. Everyone knew what Google was doing was monumentally stupid on so many grounds. There was widespread criticism over the real names policy and linking across properties.
