I've done some mass-applying with things like AngelList, but generally I like to take the time to research a company, write a thoughtful cover letter, etc. It'd be hard to do that 100 times a day, especially if I'm going to do anything else with my day. Do you think quantity is more important than quality?

I don't think you can judge quality until you're actually employed. The best looking jobs on the surface turned out to be some of the worst jobs I've ever worked. There's a lot of similarities between dating and finding a job, heh.
For you, no. Sad truth is a lot of companies are biased against interviewing bootcamp graduates because it's a total crapshoot. Anything you can do to make your resume or application prove your not brain-dead is really going to help.
