Zhihu user experience
1. To be precise, Zhihu is more like a forum: users discuss about a topic of interest, and at the same time you can pay attention to people who share your interests. For the conceptual explanation, the online encyclopedia covers almost all your questions; But the integration of divergent thinking is a major feature of Zhihu. Zhihu encouraged discussion in the question-and-answer process to broaden the divergence of questions. Encourage the non-pertinence of answers and encourage the wiki reference of answers.
2. It is more exclusive than the forum. Every registered user in Zhihu has a PR(Person Rank), and your every operation will directly affect your personal PR value. When answering, the answers are sorted by the number of votes in favor, and by the individual PR value in the case of the same number of votes in favor, while hiding the answers that are considered invalid. This filters out quite a lot of junk information to a certain extent.
3. SNS relationship based on credit. Perhaps with the integration of SNS and Q&A, Renren.com in China should develop faster. However, as mentioned above, the strict invitation system excludes a considerable part of invalid information; If Renren also introduces social Q&A, it will inevitably integrate your old friends, and obviously these friends can't all be people who are interested in your attention. This also almost denies the possibility of any large Internet company entering Quora Q&A..
