Ask HN: Is Quora's Semi-closed model working

3 points by Rain_maker 13y ago ↗ HN

I know its been a long time since they made this change. But opening Quora at work(where Facebook/Twitter is banned for obvious reasons) is plain irritating to say the least.

Is their "login to read the answers" model working out for them. I am not really sure what do they gain from restricting users, any pointers?

Personally when I saw the change I just hit the back button. I really hate this kind of behaviour. Reminds me of http://www.experts-exchange.com/ shenanigans.
