There is a Chrome extension that will redirect the Quora links to ?share=1 automatically.

Thank for the tip! I was stuck on that stupid register screen last week and just resigned and look elsewhere.
Maybe if I can actually have a grasp of what quora can do for me BEFORE subscribing I might someday consider joining.
PS: This is exactly the same crap for web based startup, usually the more they hide they're "sass live demo" under a trial subscribe-wall, the more I'm supspicious. Often with reason as product are shitty. When on the opposite you have a big "try me link" (and possibly even a "see the source on GitHub") I already have a good impression on the product...
However, most non tech-users I know will simply enter their email and a password because it's so simple and they don't see the problem with this dark pattern.
