Quora is so far to the left that I can't believes anyone reads it. It is filled with lie, distorted statements, and wild and crazy theories.

One post made a ridiculous conclusion on a disputed charge against Kushner. I wrote that if true it should be investigated and gave around 10 facts why the other claims were nonsense. The author, a Joe Bass, said one fact was nonsense and deleted my posts. I gathered evidence to show it was fact and went to rebut, but I am not allow to post.

Joe Bass' garbage remains up and now some other morons believe it is fact to spread more fake news!

A Disappointment
August 10, 2016

I happened on Quora one day and liked the varied answers. It seemed interesting. But once the political campaigns started, I noticed a bias in the answers. At first, I thought it was just the trolls at work with their commenting. I made some astute observations and answered one rant point-by-point, totally proving my points, and soon after got a message from Quora that there seemed to be a "technical issue" and I would not be able to post nor respond until further notice. If I could figure out how to block them, I would. For now, I dispatch them to junk mail.

I always posted balanced views - particularly on Israel, which always attracts the most extreme on either side. I found a few inexplicably blocked for "violating their code... causing offence etc" which was demonstrably ridiculous. As there seem to be people on the site who devote much time to purely propagate one side of the Israel/Palestine debate, I assumed someone routinely reports these and they are not checked unless appealed. One answer I appealed years ago was revoked for that reason. The last few times however, all I get in response to my appeal, are cut-n-paste replies that make no attempt to address the appeal - even my appeal against their cut-n-paste reply to my email. Don't know if they just use bots, but this means that the whole premise of attempted objectivity is bogus. If they routinely censor answers for no reason and have no real means for appeal, they're just another unfiltered tool for propagandists.

Blocked because of name and when asked to send link to my Facebook i send it but they say doesn't take them to my Facebook, funny when i click on link it takes me directly to my Facebook page. Maybe we should all have some kind of badge on our Facebook pages like the badges the Nazis made the Jews wear so they were easily identifiable, and this is an organisation that allow 13 year olds to use it, are they secretly using their platform to groom future racist and bigots who will discriminate against someone simply because of their name? Reviews tell a lot about companies and internet platforms and we can't all be wrong about this sleazy child grooming platform, if you ever feel the need to monitor your child's internet behaviour then this is the reason why you should, organisations like this are very dangerous and detrimental to children's development and future behaviour as citizens in a world where there is too much hate, bullying and discrimination.

Quora is a cesspit
August 12, 2020

Quora has become like Twitter. A cesspool of the far left censoring everyone who is not. Centrists, moderates, or conservative. Quora does not value civilized discourse. Their moderators are incompetent and can never be reached. They will collapse or remove your answer and never tell you why. Quora should best be avoided.

Horrible Management
January 22, 2017

This is a horrible company. Don't invest your time or money here... It'll be wasted on an agenda outside the interests of its content creators. It is very fascist-like, in that it doesn't offer any honest discussion outside their preconceived biases. It's a shame.

I just had a comment automatically deleted for no apparent reason. This site makes no sense. If you're going to delete my comment with a bot, why can't you send me an automated message showing the comment in question? This site is an absolute waste of time.

EDIT: Don't spend too much time on any answer or comment because you might come back only to find that it's gone. There will be no record of it. If you spend any amount of time or energy on anything, save it somewhere else. At least then, you can try to re-post it or edit it.

Hall of shame
August 9, 2020

An obscure corner of the internet that no one cares about full of delusional people thinking they're agents of global change and leading pioneer of world knowledge. In other words, losers' heaven to feel important about themselves. Not to mention usual lingo of virtue signalling and victim-claiming, only amplified tenfold by the overall conceited tone.

Bullys rule Quora
July 18, 2016

I went there. Thought it might be a good sight to get ideas. I posted a few times. On a question about being polite to police, I posted and had a gang of males jump all over me. I defended myself and one ole guy named Ross just kept on posting on my responses. So I called him a silly little man. I got an email from Quora with no name of course about what could happen if I continued with responses of that kind. Not a word about the harassment I was getting before I said it. I just noticed that some of the women can't post with out using vulgarity. So I think it must be a site for people who have been there a long time and new people are being discourage. A lot of them seem too stupid or too drunk to even answer a question. Anyway, I wanted to reply to the email and could not. They hide their customer service. They literally can kill my arse. It's a dumb site.

Surprised to see so many complaints from conservatives here who think Quora's moderators are liberal and out to ban conservative ideas. I'm on the left end of the spectrum and when I respond to conservatives who are very nastily insulting me, posting things that don't in any way advance a discussion but are just cheap personal jabs, my responses to these jabs which are much more polite get deleted while the blatantly nasty jabs from conservatives are allowed to stand.

Unhealthy atmosphere.
September 12, 2022

Too many individuals who appear threatened by all non-mainstream views and will automatically respond with hostility and derision. There is a palpable air of anger running throughout this site which I feel is a sad but true reflection of what the rest of society as a whole is like at the present time. Not a place for open minded and intellectual people to exchange thoughts and so with regret I will not be using this site any longer. Such a shame really as the platform has so much potential.

Long story cut short, I used this site in 2018, when in a difficult personal situation. I was followed by a range of people out of nowhere, they'd add me all of a sudden, sometimes even after I'd posted lots anonymously. People I'd never interacted with at any time. Many. Some bearing my same full first name and last name, people with no history of posting at all. A few days later (less than 15), all my emails were hacked, all of them. I lost Facebook forever, too, as emails were tied in. I got attempts to hack my Facebook and linkedin, very same time. After managing to scramble back on quora with an old login, all "followers" had mysteriously vanished / disappeared! I lost almost all my digital identity on this site... be very careful, as NO recourse and no help will come on quota in case you are attacked or followed.

At first I liked the site reading questions and opinions on science and finance, both interests of mine. However, after the election Quora became crammed with angry leftists who wanted every outlet at their disposal to complain and scream about the election. When I disagreed with one woman I was called a racist and white supremacist - nothing from Quora. For disagreeing with another leftist on the site - warned, though no harsh language or anything derogatory was written.

Quora is the answer
August 28, 2016

How dare anybody give Quora less than a straight 5 stars? I can't comprehend how I had survived all along without it. A wide variety of detailed and informed answers giving different angles and perspectives to the exact query by the user. Priceless

BIGOTS!
September 27, 2019

I agree with every review! Some women came on here literally down talking blacks for not adopting black kids I responded and I was told my comments were against Quora rules? This woman literally admitted that she purposely picks on blacks! Others responded as well! Flagged her comment and still her answer is still posted with 8,000 people liking what she says about blacks... this woman wrote whites were doing blacks a favor by adopting blacks kids? I too think this place should be investigated deleted my app never will look at a Quora answer again!

I have been Quora users since last 6 months, wrote around 610+ answers and one day they decided to ban my account without providing any reasons. I mean if any random person reports you, they don't have the decency to at least confirm the very same.

It's a waste of time. Because Quora moderation doesn't understand this that they are there because of the users. Once they stop using it, they won't be there.

Junk
July 2, 2018

I believe Quora censored me because I asked a polite but controversial question of American Football. I asked why was real Football's name was usurped by American football which in reality is handball. Real Football or a form there off dates back to 5000-600 BC. So technically God could have played a variation of the sport. Fake football aka American football was invented in the 1920's. I guess Quora did not like my question. I had been posting with the same name for at least a few months. Then immediately after I ask the question they sensor me due to "unverified name" What B. S. In my Opinion for legal purposes. I deleted the App from my Phone.

BIASED
September 17, 2018

Quora is completely biased and left-wing. They refuse to intervene when one is racist towards white people. The majority of their ads on Quora are aimed at attacking the Trump presidency - very one sided and biased set of rules. If you don't agree with them then you are out, but hey that's what "equality" truly means right?

They have a list of policies but no human beings actually enforce them. Instead, bots comb the site and moderated it based on keywords and baseless complaints, which are never investigated. Bad grammar and spelling abound in both questions and answers. Has anyone heard of Google Translate? The questions are mostly of incredibly low quality and the so-called Quora Partnership Program only encourages it. This site is terrible.

Terrible site. B

I paid for technical help but till four days no one answer my question then another guy send me a mail and say no body help you and i am here to help you and asked me totally baby questions regarding the technical area, i never solve my fault but they got the money. Yet they keep getting 33.00 dollars every month for so called membership which i never intend to be or never apply. This is steeling money from the people in the world should be punished by the international LAW for fraud and scam.
