Sometimes I hate Goolge+.

Sometimes I hate Goolge+. I just had a few paragraphs typed out and one fat-finger moment later my screen/tab is gone and I've lost everything I was typing out. 

Just so you know, it wasn't very good, it would have upset a lot of people and probably wouldn't have been shared. But still, it was my content, my thoughts and all of you had a right to read them.

i touched the wrong button on mobile yesterday but i managed to remember most of what i had typed so it wasn't a total loss.

I have had this problem many times. I try to remember to type myself an email and then put responses in to gplus and edit the names and tags.

Yonatan Zunger this is a vexing problem. Is there any way to have draft comments save?

It's actually so annoying I usually use Blogger to type everything out if it's going to be more than a couple of words. At least Blogger has autosave.

hate it when that happens..
another simple screen to use is this, in any browser.. it doesn't auto save, but unless you close the tab, it's there.

Had the same thing loads of times. I agree with the idea that Google+​​ could add a draft facility.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p <==edited to add the correct link Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
