Quora is a question and answer site renowned for its thoughtful, in-depth contributions and famous contributors. It is most famous for answers from Silicon Valley tech company founders and CEOs, but it covers virtually any topic, including life advice. The answers from tech celebrities can be unique statements on matters of history, not available anywhere else. And the thoughtful answers can be pretty valuable as well.

Vital signs

Going strong!

Concerns

Quora specifically disallows Internet Archive's crawlers (see note here), so there is no permanent record of any of their content. And it is a pretty typical web startup, and is obviously steeped in Valley culture, so we can pretty much rely on it going belly-up or "pivoting" in a few years and deleting all the content.
