I have been an active writer on Quora since 2023.
Unfortunately, the sheer amount of trolling questions has significantly diminished the quality of the content being produced, with authors wasting their time answering mass spammers completely uninterested in genuine answers.
Furthermore, the platform had many revamp that favor legacy answers.
Moreover, questions get collapsed without warning or reason. Basically, our answers get marked as needing revision, but there's no warning nor means to appeal the situation.
It is very frustrating to invest a couple of hours writing high-quality articles - citing one's sources such as official governmental statistics, professional books, and academic papers - yet ending up having no visibility at all.
For example, I wrote this answer this morning citing multiple books and academic papers:
Https :// www.quora.com/What-are-the-origins-and-justification-of-EXXJs-being-the-best-leaders/answer/Jonathan-Parent-L%C3%A9vesque
Yet, my answer was downvoted and collapsed after I left a comment on (very megalomaniac with a God-Complex) OP's answer to his own question suggesting that his answer was biased.
"Firstly, EJs are the BEST leaders in the world. All EJs are the BEST of the BEST. They are gods. They are heroes. Human beings cannot live without them. [...] So, why on earth are these people said to be best leaders? Because they are the VERY BEST OF THE BEST! They are the only hope that human beings have."

Finally, I must admit that I am very frustrated at moderation answering neither my multiple business recommendations nor my complaints over the years (I have post-graduate education in management science in marketing)...
Please, do not waste your time or your intellectual property on this private corporation.

I wrote the following comment on this article.

"Of course, we don't know the body language, facial expression, tone of voice, and so on of the interviewers, but using statement analysis this question in itself is neutral.

A fortiori, this was not a trick question but rather a simple binary question. Had you simply answered yes, you would have had stalled for a few seconds to come up with an explanation.

Arguably, the question was direct, but it is a perfectly legitimate one. Had you had one thought about anyone but yourself for a few seconds before writing your article, you would have realized that HR managers must be able to justify their hiring decisions to their superiors and be willing to be accountable for bad decisions...

This is doubly true if he is a member of a professional order.

Moreover, the fact that you were surprised by some of the questions of the interviewers. When hiring, the recruiter doesn't want to hear your canned answers. Rather, they want to hear a genuine answer reflecting your personality, your situation, and your career expectations.

Finally, the interviewers might want to evaluate your social aptitude, your creativity, your ability to cope with stress, or even your humility if you can't answer a technical question.

I am sorry, but from a business school graduate perspective, your article is a concrete piece of evidence that you are not ready to go back on the labor market yet."

What shocks me with so many of these blogs and news outlets is that freedom of speech seems to apply only to themselves and to those actively sharing their ideology...

With those biased media, professionals cannot share an honest opinion in their own field of expertise if it goes against their self-serving propaganda.

Last week, I started working on a 30 minutes presentation for one of my university courses. For some unknown reason, my progress didn't save (although the picture uploaded was saved onto my account) and I lost several hours of work.

It is impossible for me to view whether or not it is possible to retrieve my projects since the history feature is a premium one. Now the premium feature cost $200 which is prohibitive for a poor student who has to manage to pay all his expenses with a yearly income of $10,700 (the "minimal viable income" to live in Montreal is $29,500 according to the IRIS).

When one considers that being a post-graduate student requires 50h+ of work each week, losing several hours of work and not being able to know the reason why it fails or is able to restore the problem is extremely frustrating.

You can be sure I will make negative WOM for this brand (I am studying marketing BTW) as long as this product remains highly unreliable as well as prohibitive for university students.

The university student discount is available through out Canada, but doesn't apply to universities in the province of Quebec.

Do not support companies that segrate against cultural minorities.
