Ironically, Google+ was an all-out diaspora* ripoff. And Google got away with it because they brazenly stole from something that nobody even knew existed.

Remember Google's new UI style? The black bar at the top? Stolen from diaspora* for Google+.

Also, everyone claims that Google+ invented the concept of "circles". Actually, Google just ripped off diaspora*'s aspects. (And Friendica had them several months before diaspora* even. So Friendica had them first. Not diaspora*. And Google even less.)

Yep I was a very early developer (software developer) on the platform back in the day. Facebook and Google both stole a lot of what diaspora did with communities/circles and UI. I have not been on it for a very long time. I should take another look.
