I can relate so much with the going viral on Quora thing. One of my answers went super viral, got taken down, and came back up.

It has upward of 40k upvotes and 400k views, if it hadn't been taken down, I am sure it would have garnered more.

Till date, it remains one of the most upvoted answers on Quora and it was written when I wasn't feeling like it.

I wrote it when it felt like a chore. Write when you least feel like it, Excellent advice
