Seems a bit disingenuous to compare the niche of tech folks that used Google+ to the niche that use WeChat, with the later “niche” being… China…

Not everyone has to agree that dominating a country’s social media usage is a good goal, but it clearly is the goal for many companies, and they’re going to continue to persue it. Perhaps users of social media should redefine success, but for creators of social media platforms there are absolutely clearly defined measures of success and failure.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
