I think you have 18 months before G+ is fully gone.

ETA I am so relieved this wasn't one of those bad news posts xxx

ETAA Oh, and instagram. Your user name is available. It's also got its issues of course

G+ shutting down? Oh, poot.

I'm still here. And there. And Dreamwidth. I can't say any of them are banging hives of activity. Although to be fair, if all the people who say "I miss LJ" could just be persuaded to get themselves back at the same time we'd have quite the community.

Honestly, sooner or later we're just going to have to get ourselves into pubs and talk to each other like peasants.

I'm going to write to the Diaspora people and congratulate them that someone finally proposed using their platform for something!

I only moved off LJ because nobody used it anymore, so for me the departure of G+ leaves (for now) just Facebook.

There's also "Solid", but that's like Diaspora without the usability. Does have 100% more Tim Berners Lee, though! :-D

I'm on Dreamwidth, Facebook but hate it and mostly just use it for work, largely on Twitter because I like the short form. Now @BradshawSound as well for my exciting new life.
