  I’m not sure they do at all. There are just a bunch of Kagi users here.

    I mean the idea is to appear organic, it’s not very effective advertising otherwise. It’s free real estate there is no reason they would not be doing it.

      Should I ask them about being paid? I’ve been doing it for free all this time.

        Not trying to say there is no organic discussion, but I would be shocked if they were ignoring this avenue for getting the word out. It’s basically free advertising and advertising is generally expensive.

    I tend to be suspicious of any brand name dropping. It’s where most reddit advertising happens too.

      Fair point, I think I agree. Just makes me feel ever so slightly called out for mentioning them frequently myself, though it’s pretty clear you’re not talking about regular users giving honest feedback so that’s more a “me” problem

        Sorry, I meant nothing towards anyone in particular, just mostly want to point out the strong likelihood companies are posting here. It’s a when, not an if. The bigger Lemmy gets the more money there is to be made here.
