For a short period of time it was indeed a good place to get answers from knowledgeable people, and they allowed a wider range of questions than Stack Exchange, which was nice.
But it's been complete garbage for several years now. The space is ripe for disruption :)
- FartyMcFarter 3y agoYeah I used to be delighted every time I received the weekly digest in my email. Nowadays I still read it ocasionally, but it's mostly garbage unfortunately.
- iteratethis 3y agoThe disruption needed is to keep it small and focuses on quality. Every platform that has its "eternal september" ends up ruined in the way you describe.
- joelthelion 3y agoFor Quora, they made an active decision to destroy the nice credit economics system that was in place and push garbage, sensational questions and answers. It doesn't have to be that way.
