The internet's self-conscious act of intellectual validity and authority. Unsurprisingly primarily self-centered and authoritarian instead of rational.
Some of the more objective or positive entries might at first make one assume that most people there are not just as insufferable as anywhere else and like any community on the internet, albeit maybe at the same time with an even more all-encompassing entitlement and smug self-satisfaction.
And assume that the triviality of most of the questions would be self-aware and not lost on most of the people.
Highly restrictive, not only in the artificial question and answer format, but also the ultra-strict length limitations and rampant auto-correct functions, Content Review and straightforward censorship.
Moderation is more concerned with keeping up appearances than with moral tasks, consistency and transparency. Sanctimonious, arrogant, prejudiced and irrational and with a cult-like devotion to their brand and policy taken literally and subjectively.
Actual psychopaths, either self-proclaimed in order to effectively show off or those whose practices are harboured there, are the hipsters of the place.

Your mom recently found quora and now thinks she is one of the coolest, most elite people around.
Quora is giving me the habit of thinking only in questions and and not on my own anymore, and making me think I should follow every response like scripture, simply because it's on Quora.

A website where people with fake credentials ridicule you for even asking a question, and others just ask creepy personal questions to strangers
Person 1: goes on quora and posts a question asking how quantum superposition works
Person 2: my quora credentials say I am a CEO and billionaire but if you look me up you will find I am not even on LinkedIn, but I will still tell you you are stupid for even asking that question

A completely useless and worthless unreliable joke of a q&a website that is just as shitty, unhelpful, stupid, and toxic as yahoo answers except it has even shittier rules and the people on this website are even worse than the website itself mostly because it’s full of condescending know it all pseudo intellectual morons that think they know everything about you all because of something you said on the internet and they automatically assume you’re a narcissist if you ask questions that sound even slightly pessimistic and/or self centered because they’re too retarded to understand that if someone is depressed or frustrated with life then of course they are going ask those type of question not only that but they are far too narcissistic themselves to admit they don’t know shit about anyone hell they couldn’t even admit they don’t know shit when they really don’t even if their life depended on it that’s how egotistical and full of shit qourans are it’s so bad that being a quoran is basically a combo insult it’s worse than being called a failure or a loser because at least those people are actually something
What’s that you actually use quora? HAHAHAHA WHAT PATHETIC WASTE OF SPACE GET A FUCKING LIFE YOU QUORAN

a fraud, business scheme masquerading as a QnA website with a userbase consisting of drooling zombies, ccp shills, and 14 year old 'intellectuals' who got their knowledge from some random youtuber. it has also many white neckbeard incels who have a very creepy fetish for east asian women with even more creepier questions about them. it's moderation style would make orwell's 1984 look like a haven for liberty.

Little Jimmy signed up on Quora to ask about a certain subject, but soon found out it's better to get it from a horse's ass than a Quora user.

A Q&A website devoted to far-left propaganda, extreme atheism, and hating all Republicans, Christians, and anyone who is not a feminist. The site is a raging cesspool of self-proclaimed intellectuals who believe thesaurus-abuse makes them sound smart. Quora is a place with extremely restrictive moderation; in other words, they censor the shit out of anyone who they don't agree with. As Quora moderators have the power to remove questions, delete and edit answers, and delete users entirely, a Quora has developed a culture of deleting and censoring anyone who does not agree with the herd.
The site is a breeding ground for prententious assholes to brag about how high their IQ is and how many college classes they've taken. The result is a gigantic pissing contest of self-centered IQ worship and a competition for who has the most credentials, and anyone who has an opinion but didn't go to MIT or Harvard for 12 years gets downvoted into oblivion and censored by the moderators for not being intellectual enough.

"Hey man, have you ever tried Quora?"
"I did! I used it for two days but my account was deleted because I said I wasn't a liberal."
