On a seperate note, why do people feel the need to exaggerate their Quora profile/education level/accomplishments? I'm not the only one who's noticed how many Quora profiles are filled with ludicrous, self-aggrandizing descriptions, right?
I'm not a 100% sure, but I've got a feeling that having a well-regarded Quora profile became a Thing in India and other parts.
Then people started spamming "answers" to every question they could even tangentially produce some gibberish for.
10 years ago Quora was a place where you could get an actual expert answering questions (a thing they should've done on their own site tbh[0] with references and actual insight. Now it's just like what experts exchange turned into.

I read somewhere that it’s best for your blog SEO to publish there first and on medium subsequently, but couldn’t put a name to it. Thsnks!
As in it is Quora specific or it's always been this way? People haven't changed...
Quora has always been like that, attracts a certain type of person.
Because some people mistake walking past a university lecture hall with getting a degree.
