99% nonsense
September 22, 2018

If you like math, it's like an easier-to-follow-along math stack exchange. If you like learning about how people like to present themselves, you might also find the site entertaining. Occasionally there is some run-of-the-mill fellow who sounds honest and reasonable, but that is a refreshment in the desert. The rest of it is garbled nonsense. The vast majority of the questions hardly make any sense, and the same goes for the vast majority of answers to the vast majority of questions. Heavy left-wing bias, nihilism, arrogance, self-indulgence, and ideological insanity abound. There is a pervasive (albeit subtle) narcissistic fog that suffocates any kind of hope I have for this site to develop into a healthy online community. It is a neurotic site that enables and exacerbates a very unhealthy "information" addiction. It's like Oceania online. 2 stars gives an apt description: would not recommend.

I use the site every day to spread my hatred for Jehovahs witnesses. I also attack users by reporting their posts, until the Quora bots ban the user. So if you dislike someone, Like I do the Jehovahs witnesses, its a great place to get away with it.
If you have peers that can assist you in reporting a user you dont like, on outside sites like Facebook, you can really attack someone faster... and out they go...

Ive attacked many people, and look forward to spewing hate further. The site is Pro LGBT to the max, so they wont ever do anything if I keep attacking religious people.

A Zionist site
March 18, 2016

I sourced the fact that Israels Begin dressed as a Arab and blew up 91 British soldiers, wife and kids at the king David hotel at the Jewish virtual library in Israel. And that the Rothschild family financed both sides of both world wars. This got me censored. Quora is in the business of re writing history and is Zionist

Religious persecution
August 9, 2020

Quora kicked me off for being a Christian or holding Christian views. This violated my civil rights. They say I am being disrespectful. I tried to contact them and I can't reach them. They won't allow me to dispute getting kicked off.

Threatened!
March 8, 2021

I did enjoy reading the different opinions & comments on Quora & Life is Beautiful but i cancelled because i received threatening comments from probably Russian readers about comments made on the useless slaughter of German people in ww2.
When i went to reply to being called a hitler fan boy i could not reply & this site has obviously Anti German sentiment.
I was invited to visit a reader & told i would not leave alive & Quora allowed that comment to reach me?

It is clear that in Quora they have a policy that applies or not depending on whether the subject bothers or not to Quora's personal agenda, which says a lot about the lack of democracy of this social network. The best thing you can do is block Quora in search engine results with plugins such as uBlacklist or others.

I had an account with Quora. They banned me. I asked for an explanation as to why, they ignored me. They have left my profile with a banner saying banned which is causing me great embarrassment. I have left private information in their site and they refuse to let me have access to my account to delete it and erase my data.

Do not get involved with Quora. Your data is not safe with them.

I can't find a minus 10
September 5, 2021

If you want to communicate with a bunch of bot moderators then Quora is an ideal place to visit.
If you want to be bombarded with questions like "Which way is up?" then this bot driven platform is just perfect.

Quora Digest
October 22, 2022

Quora Digest is very annoying. I don't even have Quora, yet they send me mail. I have over 30 unread spam messages from them. They have sent me them over the last month or so. I have even blocked them, but somehow, they keep getting into my inbox, even though I have marked them as spam. I have replied to them to say that I'm not interested, but they just keep sending me this stupid stuff that I'm not interested in.

Have a safe and awesome day.

My rating is not going to the credibility to the answers they offer but to the fact they must be desperate for viewers because of all their darn emails. I had to cancel my account with them and boy was that a jungle. I think they try their best to keep you on. Once I did manage to cancel my account and demanded that they stop sending me emails guess what, they started sending me emails to rate their customer service on how they helped me to cancel my account! They are a joke a real joke!

I advice you to never make an account cause it will push you with emails 24/7. If you unsubscribe from the emails, it will just automatically set itself to subscribed.

This is not a Q & A website
September 15, 2019

They want you to think you can ask anything and intelligent, knowledgeable will give you the answer. But, the people with thousands of followers will tell you to Google your answer. If you reply back that you knew you could do that, but you thought the purpose of this website was to get a variety of thoughts and opinions, the person who answered will block any comments and his answer. I don't know who moderates this, but they aren't doing a very good job. If Quora wants to make money off this website, they should let us participate. As of now I have deleted the apps from my devices and will Google my answers. I will not click on any answer that links me to Quora. And that's too bad because some of the people have really good answers. But, one bad apple does spoil the whole bunch.

Not for advertisers

Quora will shut your account down without any explanation and you won't even be able to contact support! Your mail and user ID will be blacklisted and they won't even bother replying if you contact through another account.

Hateful people
June 9, 2019

Wow. What a bunch of hateful people. You ask a simple question based on an observation or curiosity and BAM you're attacked. Forbid you are an American asking about British royalty. All of a sudden you are stupid and unobservant and a second class citizen. Wow. I deleted my account and unsubscribed. If I needed this much negativity I'll go watch Documentaries of the Holocaust.

If you have a viewpoint that is other then liberal your answers will be scrutinized and you will be penalized.
I'm sure that quora is pressured by the radical left and I feel that they in effect quotas decision making process. In the past, I have attempted to answer some of the most juvenile questions with humor, levity, and sometimes with blunt truth regardless. I think the snow flakes pressure quora to stop speech that they do not agree with. Currently, I am suspended from posting answers on quora for one week. Frankly, I am getting tired of reading the complaints posted by frantic liberals, and namby pamby, and I will no w consider weather I should return to quora or not. Not a fair and balanced forum.

Quora
January 16, 2021

Quora sucks because:
When they don't think you use your real name, they ban you from their site. And you can't change your name.
You can't deactivate your account 'til 6 days.
Do not have enough words to comment about your own question

It's good because:
You get to learn other people's veiws (some not so helpful)
Freedom of speech! (Sometimes)
Great questions (sometimes)

Unfair Company

This company only allows you to speak your truth if it aligns with theirs. They will suppress your truth by deleting your comments. They are bigoted and I will be deactivating my account. I don't trust them.

Quora is an online question/answer community much like Yahoo! Answers and Wiki Answers. Quora is in invite only phase this means that you need invitation from a friend who is already on Quroa to join it. Ask around your friends on Facebook or Twittter chances are that some of your friends are already there. What I liked about Quora is that the answers there come from real people with real expertise on the topics.

The moderation team at Quora is the problem here. Quora as a whole isn't too bad. Yet, you get these troll question from either the Conservatives, or liberals, or any black or white position you can imagine, and Quora bans you for being snarky in return. It's a real problem, and in my opinion, the only real problem Quora has.

QUora uses BNBR as a way to shut down people that do not play into their political narrative. They completely erased my account UltimateMan under name Tom Bijl as soon as I spoke about NASA being a big lie and oddly enough the people trying to prove me wrong were mean and disrespectful and I stayed steadfast on being polite and focus on the topic. But seemingly it is those who question the lies that get that BS BNBR pretext to shut them down. And they give no reason what so ever or explanation. This is a criminal website that needs to be shutdown worldwide. They are manipulating people and controlling the narrative. We ought to stop this kind of practices people trying to monopolise the narrative are dictators and tyrants, they need to be stopped before too many people are corrupted by disinformation.
Contacted them for a dispute, no answer they seem dead. So I advise everybody to stay away from Quora.
