I had no problem with the "G+ uses real names" thing since I just viewed it as another option for Facebook that never really took off. I did have an issue with them forcing everything to use a G+ profile. I quit leaving reviews in the Play Store because of that. And not that I ever really commented on YouTube videos but once that change was forced, it never even crossed my mind to comment. I think they should have kept G+ as "real names" and split all the other stuff back away so they didn't require real names. But I do understand why people want to use other names. I just never used G+ like that.
I stopped engaging with Google properties when they changes the youtube comment system and broke it in Chrome. There's some setting about external sites or something that I could go in and change to make it work, but why should I? If they can't create a comment system that works with their own browser, and double posts everything to my g+ account I don't use, why should I bother?
It was like shoving peanuts down the throat of a person with a peanut allergy. No means no.
