A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

@soiling @BendyLemmy the quality of answers is low, you're not missing out

It’s kind of famous for some stupidly bad questions & answers.

That was Yahoo! Answers. Quroa is...a titch better.

Depends on context. Yahoo Answers was so bad it was a form of entertainment (unintentionally), especially with people curating the funny stuff so you never had to even set foot there.

Quora on the other hand just pays people to participate so you end up with people who don't even have any questions they need to ask making up garbage, then people giving copy/pasted or even completely wrong answers to boost their reputation. The site also always pesters you to log in. It's not even useful as a source of a good laugh.
