love to search for something and see that the first 5 results are spam sites that scraped something vaguely related to my question from some forum or whatever.
Sometimes Quora is actually good - if not great. But I'd always rather have a link to an actual publication or website like Scientific American or something. That's better for me than some rando. In the end Quora is a glorified form of Reddit.
Sometimes Quora members really know their stuff. If I google history of the les paul guitar and I get one (or more) Quora results - those results might be fantastic. A Quora member named My1959LesPaul might give a 600+ word answer that's enlightening, informative, amusing, accurate, and he even puts in ~5 photos. That's one of my "I love the internet" moments.
But if I google history of covid - I don't want any Quora results or any Quora-like results at all. I'm not looking for a rando's take.
Not always, in the past couple of years, there have been a lot of dedicated USSR nerds that continually post and debunk myths about the Soviet Union in WWII. But if their posting ever stops then it will immediately go back to unverified shit.

truly an eldritch abomination
fewer mayos though. much more balanced opinion than reddit
its full of the smuggest motherfuckers alive though
just like reddit
Isn't Quora more of a ShitOverflow clone?

I googled "Did Stalin drink" and got served with a Quora result that cited directly from Montefiori and the Court of the Red Czar.
Quora would be alright except it always wants me to log in to google or whatever the fuck to read it. Stfu I just wanna see what some rando has to say
