I would look to many. 2 of them are majors, but they seem legit. The last 2 are sketchy in that I have no idea who they are.

I want to know about the people behind it. Is it some backyard developers or is it a company?

One thing I hope everyone takes from reddit, the troll’s main weapon is downvoting in droves. I’ve seen 6 upvotes happen in under a minute on Lemmy and we don’t have that kind of user base. Some posts don’t even get federated that quickly. If the question was in good faith and downvoted, it was probably trolls. I hope you don’t take that personal.
