I think it is just irrelevant to the web today. I don't think Quora has a future to be an independent business.
To me Quora is just a more entitled/self-righteous version of Reddit, and much less fun.
- Mirioron 7y agoI think that sounds fine though. You could consider HN to be "like reddit" too, but there's still value in HN.
- tanilama 7y agoHN is not valuing itself at 2B dollars, that is the problem. It is Quora itself that needs to justify against that valuation, not anyone else. Where that is fine or not, I think the news itself is self-explanatory.
- conjectures 7y agoIt's interesting how the value the owners get from HN is more kudos and relevant discourse. I'm finding it hard to think of other domains with succesful quasi-public institutions run by for-profits without monetization. Are there other examples?
