    May I ask why? Edit: A genuine question. Sometimes Quora answers popup in my search, but I didn’t see any particular problem with it. Other than the AI answers.

      My problem is the lack of real answers from professionals.

      As someone in the tech industry, I get curious and look around. And the top rated answers (usually theres like 3 answers max) are often wrong.

      There was a hilarious Quora answer that asked about web development, and the person who answered was a guy whose experience was “I’ve been on the internet” who gave a solution using technology from 2010.

      It’s hilariously bad and Quora don’t care.

      Not OP but I’ve noticed a lot of racists, extreme right nationalists, religious chauvinists, etc. Which sucks because the concept is quite cool and I’d love to be able to jump from one question to the next, but pretty quickly I get irritated and have to close it.

        Mhmm, okay then. So that means not enough or good enough moderation. I will keep an eye if I see such search results again.

          Do yourself a favor and get a Browser extension to block domains.

          Quora is absolutely on my blocklist.
