I finally managed to get Google Takeout to archive all my G+ history, so I have it saved for prosperity.
I’ve also changed links on here and my main home page to remove the link to G+ and replace it with my Soundcloud page.
From now until its death, anything I post to G+ will not be missed when it’s all gone. I’ve made a lot of good contacts through that platform and will miss it, but the time has come to move on. I won’t stop posting there until I can no longer do so, but as I have been doing, anything I want to keep, goes here.
Double check that, Colin. I recently managed to complete two exports successfully. Comparing them showed up differences (e.g. different +1 lists on an 8 month old post). Just because takeout doesn’t say it’s failed doesn’t mean it’s worked!
I have. Posts dating back to 2011, index.html included. I didn’t check really deeply but it’s archived more than I expected. Not perfect but good enough 🙂
