I don’t doubt that! I’ve just seen it mentioned a LOT, much more than any other sites I’ve visited.
I’m not suspicious about it anymore, though—if it wasn’t a free open-source program, that would be a different story! Spotting obvious ads disguised as comments everywhere on Reddit was always fun.
Same, the last few posts about a password manager was heavily voted for bitwarden and keypass. It is suspicious, but at the same time Lemmy is primarily filled with techy programmers that are more in tune with tech than most people and lean toward open source and pirating.
It kinda does feel like it’s being promoted here, which seems unnecessary for a free, open-source program hahaha
Might just be because people really like it and want to share.
