Found this conversation on MeWe between a user and MeWe staff. You may find the answers interesting.

MeWe user posts list of missing features:

1. Can't share post privately to our followers also includes able to share posts privately to selected users.
2. When resharing posts from followers/group there's no mention of the users/group name who the post been shared from.
3. Don't get it why MeWe doesn't allows to view our profile and group to public non MeWe users without signing up when we share the link.
4. There's no link options for posts. How to share individual post with the help of links. Posts can only be shared within MeWes system.
5. When sharing posts in group why the shared content is not seen on ones timeline.
6. No group classification. Like which is your owned group and joined.
7. No sharing counter. How many and who shared your post.
8. No option to disable comments and sharing.





Mark Stronge of MeWe answers:

All of your posts are private, shared to your contacts, there are no followers on MeWe so choose who you want to give access to be able to chat to. A close friends option is already in the works.

Already in the works

MeWe is built on consent and privacy. Public posts are coming but they will be public within MeWe, not to the web.

This is related to privacy and the design of MeWe, that may change.

Groups and your timeline are separate.

A very minor thing, you should know which group you created though.

That might be added when the sharing with original source shown is added

Disabling comments might be useful, you can already disable sharing of all of your posts in the settings.

Followers is coming in 2 weeks

The Death of Google+ Is Tearing Its Die Hard Communities Apart | Steven T. Wright

...For these Google+ enthusiasts, the process of digital relocation has become a very serious endeavor. Just ask John Lewis, the software developer who built a 3,500-member group on Google+ that’s dedicated to finding a replacement for these uprooted users, dubbed the “Mass Migration” community. A cursory scroll reveals intense discussions about what social media platform the users will flock to next, with debates that dwell on the relative strengths and weaknesses of individual platforms. Lewis and his raft of dedicated moderators have even organized Reddit-style AMAs for the CEOs of these sites to essentially pitch themselves to the skeptical community....

How to view the G+ Takeaway files.

Don Kleinschnitz Jr. I found this HTML file viewer that allows you to drag and drop your files so that you can review them.

How to save your G+ page.

How to save your G+ page.

Today I wanted to see if I could save my G+ page so that it could be accessed later. The good news is that yes it can be done. You can also save other sites if you want. You are only limited by your storage availability.

Here is the program I used. It is freeware. I am sure there are other programs available for use.

Update on my power supply failure.

Update on my power supply failure.

When I opened up the failed power supply, I found that the input side of the high voltage transformer had shorted out to a near by capacitor. I opened the new power supply and found that the line followed the same path. I insulated the capacitor and line with kapton tape. I then added some non conductive foam between the problem areas. A quick inspection of the failed power supply also showed that the output line was rubbing on the power supply case. I made sure this was also isolated on the new power supply.

Don Kleinschnitz Jr. The power supply failure was not related to the oil from the refrigeration compressor in the cooling water.

Everything is working good as new. (as it should!)
