Quora has the benefit to provide multiple answers to one question. With people upvoting the one answers that are the most relevant to the question. You can get an answer for any questions on any topic. Indeed, Quora has a huge number of questions with quality answers on the topic of entrepreneurship. In fact, it is really useful to use Quora to better understand what others think and get the different point of view of others.
There is another blog post that enumerates the top 5 subreddits for entrepreneurs. Reddit is I believe one of the best ways to learn from others and ask whichever question you want. It is definitely not focusing on advertising your product or service but way to get your product or service reviewed and help others who have their own side projects.
