Quora requires registration to simply read it.

That's at least going to lose them viewers who don't want to bother.

Pinterest is probably the worst offender for that. You get progressively blocked the more you try to read.

i stopped using them because of that, and i even have an account; i just can't be bothered logging in to it everywhere.

Yep, for awhile I didn't even register; I used some trick (I forget what it was) to get around that.

Eventually I did register. And then the above requirement came, and that was the final nail in the coffin.

Adding share=1 to the query string allows unregistered viewing.

Such a strange decision by quora. No wonder they're so irrelevant.

Iirc you can get around this by appending ?share=1

The "Quora Share" add-on for Firefox will automatically add the "?share=1" parameter for you:

The "block element" feature of muBlock allows you to block the popup that asks you to register. Just right-click on the popup, use "Block element", highlight the popup, click "Create", and do the same for the opaque background.

In my experience, blocking cookies and/or using incognito mode works to block off their solicitations. Now if only someone would find a solution for Scribd..

Or multiple incognito/private windows :P
