- Belphemur 4y agoI'd argue all Q&A services devolve into madness when they get mainstream. Before Quora we had yahoo answer and before that surely something else. As soon as they get mainstream the quality of question and answer goes down. Those systems only work with well defined constraints either on the subject of the question or the validation of the expertise of the people answering. All of those platform just open the valve with close to no moderation. We can see the same with Reddit and big sub Reddit.
- skilled 4y agoThis is largely platform’s fault though. Quora had every opportunity to stop site spammers from posting non-informative answers just to farm clicks for the blog posts they link to for the “full” answer. Mind boggling that Google hasn’t penalised them since years ago.
- behnamoh 4y agoGoogle didn't penalize Pinterest either. In Google image search, Pinterest results are abundant but clicking on them and viewing them requires a sign-up on Pinterest. I still remember the good old days of Quora; it was a nice era but it's gone...
- Normille 4y agoYou think Quora is bad? Try blocking Pinterest from your search results. I swear those bastards have registered pinterest<dot><every-fucking-TLD-in-existence>

- jandrese 4y agoYou will know you have died and gone to hell when you can navigate to pinterest.mil.
- oofbey 4y agoStackoverflow and it’s dozens of sigs seem fine. What do you think is the exception? Not mainstream? I’d argue it’s good community policing with a carefully Maintained incentive structure.
- permo-w 4y agoI think stack exchange's extraordinary resistance to content deterioration is largely due to the moderation atmosphere that I would describe as something akin to a particularly pedantic police state
- rc_mob 4y agoI love stack overflow and all but I am so sick if very old answers showing as the top result in google. no I'm not using java 6 or laravel 4 or whatever
- yakubin 4y agoStack Exchange works pretty well. There is some moderation on SE, but not much IMO.
- cptskippy 4y agoQuora is the new ExpertSexChange.com.
