HailCorporate is a community for individuals committed to unmasking the deceptive practice of astroturfing and exposing fake product testimonials. In a digital age where the line between genuine endorsements and corporate manipulations is increasingly blurred, our community has become necessary. Here, we collectively call out comments and posts where everyday people, often unknowingly, become pawns in a company’s PR strategy, spreading scripted messages under the guise of personal opinion. HailCorporate’s mission is to foster a culture of transparency and authenticity, empowering fediverse users to challenge the covert tactics used by most multinational corporations to astroturf the fediverse.

    This is exactly what’s going to happen, the idea that corporate entities are even aware of us let alone investing resources into convincing the few hundred commenters on Lemmy of their opinions is ridiculous.

    This will just turn into “oh, you have a dissenting opinion? You’re a corporate shill.”

    Can’t wait, we’ll lose even more people and then I’ll end up just going to Tildes exclusively as the echo chamber becomes even more severe than it already is here.

      At times it’s amusing when people get super excited about the “Reddit exodus” and how the Fediverse will end Reddit.

      Seems like the really egregious behavior is leaving Reddit and moving here, which might have the effect of actually improving Reddit lol

        I agree, everytime I see someone saying how improved this place is I just think “wtf are you seeing that I’m not?”

        It feels like this place took the worst of reddit, not the best.
