It’s kind of an effort post. It’s also just a “imagine if this other concept took off, because it didn’t happen I can imagine an alternative history where it did take off” except the post doesn’t exactly imagine the outcome, just seems to say "like we should have done this thing in the 60s and we didn’t and look how bad capitalism is at making good things happen which is true but not an argument actually for anything.
Quora was at one point fine, it’s just like all such sites.
Quora became good in its first years until the other co-founder was fired around 2012 (Coincidence? Who were the visionaries?). Quora stagnated until 2018 when the remaining (visionless) co-founder started enshittifying it.
Destroyed computer-aided collaboration.

Sad that an effort post is hosted on Quora
I avoid that site like the plague
