Diaspora vs Google Plus
ericbright Diaspora has no group or community feature. The only way to filter out anything is to manipulate hashtags. Also, there is no moderation mechanism for posts related to any topic. Anyone's post with a hashtag similar to yours will appear in your stream, that allows for a huge spamming vulnerability.Its OpenSource, so you can host ist by yourself. Much more privacy, what is important for companies.Nearly same usibility like G+, easy to understand and it's possible to create groups by using #Hashtags. Lots of former G+ers already arrived here, so it's easy to reunite.It requires you to 'host' a site (using your system storage etc) rather than true cloud support. Unless you have a Linux system server to play with its pretty useless to most people who want it. - Hangouts is a messaging app that lets you send and receive messages, photos and more, and even start free video and voice calls – one to one or with a group!

Minds vs Google Plus
The biggest problem comes from their "boosted" posts which people pay to have boosted by buying tokens. It's like being bombarded by posts (just like advertisements) from porn, anti-vaxxers, science deniers and, hate groups. Obnoxious people can push their nonsense and even create an impression of popularity if they enough buy tokens to do so! - Tumblr is a place to express yourself, discover yourself, and bond over the stuff you love.

Pinterest vs Google Plus
Pinterest is not about writing but mostly links to pictures and other sites. I want the ability to carry on conversations on subjects.Because you can now comment on users pins and you can follow users boards and yeah thats where i will be going when G+ shuts down i dont like any of the others
