Might you be mistaking Orkut for Google+? Orkut was the social network (owned by Google) that was hugely popular in Brazil.

And India too I think.

I think you can even see your old Orkut data in a Google Takeout (I saw it a few years back)

This makes me wonder what my Orkut email address was. My Gmail was a beta test one from 2004, so that is post-Orkut.
Orkut was launched in 2004 too
That's wild, thank you. I could have sworn it launched in 2000 and was very much earlier than Facebook.
