In my opinion, driving traffic was a success. It came at a steep cost. Very poor signal to noise ratio. Reputable or notable contributions do not rise above the noise well enough to preserve the initial reputability Quora began with. Spaces are a mixed bag. Mostly good. Depends on the space, and the better ones are asking for features that make a lot of sense. It could get worse. Quora does still retain a nice fraction of the initial top writers, and a fair number of those really still care. Finished? I don't think so. Time remains to improve. If they do not decide what Quora is intended to be, then yes. Finished, and it will trundle along for a good while yet. There does need to be a cleanup pass done, and with it very clear intent. Throughout the history of Quora, intent, to a large but not inclusive degree, culture, and overall site management have gone through multiple transitions. Each of these netted some great ideas. It appears few of those were given the attention and focus needed for it all to play out better than it currently has. The high value leave behinds are disappointing.
