And when you search a question you get 50 questions asking the same thing and each has 90 answers each but most are complete bs, or spam or like 20 people saying the same thing or copy paste from top Google search results.... You can't scroll long enough.. Also 20 paragraph stories from Indian person.

well... http://stackoverflow.com for programming, and the family of http://stackexchange.com websites for many other fields.
Quora's whole model is "like Stack Exchange, but with venture capital for a big IPO". Everything after the comma explains why Quora is junk.
Now they removed descriptions from questions, hide comments by default, so they are heading the same direction.
Stackoverflow is helpful as documentation with examples, but for engineering problems is of no help anymore. I usually have to ask in some dev chats and discuss there

>What happened to Quora anyway? It became marketing. Almost every question turns into blatant and unhelpful pitches for the responder's startup. Same with Medium. Once the startup bros say a site is good for "native marketing", that's when the begins to die.
What is a "bro"? Is advertising a male business?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bro_(subculture)
>Bro is a subculture of young men who spend time partying with others like themselves.[1] Although the popular image of bro lifestyle is associated with sports apparel and fraternities, it lacks a consistent definition. Most aspects vary regionally such as in California where it overlaps with surf culture.[2] Oxford Dictionaries have noted that bros frequently self-identify with neologisms containing the word "bro" as a prefix or suffix.[1] In a New York Magazine article in September 2013, Ann Friedman wrote: "Bro once meant something specific: a self-absorbed young white guy in board shorts with a taste for cheap beer. But it’s become a shorthand for the sort of privileged ignorance that thrives in groups dominated by wealthy, white, straight men."[3]
