What happened to Quora?

I remember being so active on that platform. It still gets me most impressions across all social platforms (but who even cares)

Grapevine is massive 🍾

Can someone from GV team tell me why there are points to post of GV 1. FAB 2. At the top, which looks like search bar to me Can you share some insights on this decision or some data, what’s the CTR on this and how it’s performing?

GV admins , if you can throw some light 👀

It hasn't been a long time since I joined, but up until a few days ago, when I used to refresh GV, I rarely used to find any new posts. Lately, I always find a new post? Seems like GV is growing 💜

I’ll go first. To me, it’s all about access. Access to authentic ideas. The best search result you get on Google is high SEO but low authenticity. On LinkedIn, there are so many people but everyone is shilling a course or 1:1 resume reviews. Mostly it has become a place which started as vanity signalling Like ( I have started a new role…, I have been accepted at …, I have received offers from F, A, N and G and I’m joining G.) And now people pushing mindless content with “Agree?” or “Comment Interested”. Somehow, everyone is truly inauthentic to please a wider audience and say the exact same generic gyaan to maximise engagement. For now, Grapevine is where people are genuinely themselves and I get to hear interesting things that you get to hear near the coffee machine. Kinda feels like we’re all a big community where we all contribute and learn new things about the professional landscape around us. Godspeed Grapevine. 🚀

Just curious, how did GV start acquiring users? What were your primary channels? What worked, what didn't? Trying to implement an idea in a different space, insights would help.
