honestly, not sure I -ever- found a useful answer on Quora. I only would check it when there were literally no other options available. Even then it was usually some rando's opinion on their obtuse interpretation of what the OP was actually asking i.e., they rarely even answered what the OP had asked and more often answered what the responder wanted to answer.
Quora was garbage when it began, and it is still garbage now.
I think for like ten minutes they were vetting people joining or something, and the answers were high quality. But the whole thing turned into yahoo answers within a month of it getting popular.

Reading them taught me one thing, Quora had/has a weirdly strong hardon for Steve Jobs and is/was all too happy to talk about anecdotes of him buying the authors' lunch or reconciling with his estranged daughter. The only time I read criticism of Apple or him was when the question specifically asked for it.
