Quora Blogs:

"You must sign in to read past the first paragraph."

You've never had to log in to read blog content, there has never been a sign-up wall on loading a blog or blog post on Quora.

I understand and respect the displeasure people have over Quora's sign-up wall, but it's not constructive to point it out as a negative where it doesn't even exist.

Also, I'm sure you either 1) don't care or 2) already know, you can get around the sign-up wall at any time by adding ?share=1 to any Quora URL.

There was a time when I'd never had to log in to read past the first answer on Quora. If I'm not mistaken, there was also a time when I could read the first answer without pop-over sign up harassment. Likewise, there was a time before Quora started sharing my history [1].

It's hard not to expect negatives with that kind of track record.
