Why habrazhiteli do not favor the company?

Question

Habr

An interesting fact: I published the same article (in terms of meaning) from myself personally and then from a corporate blog. At the same time, an article written in the first person received a bunch of pluses in the first ten minutes, while a corporate article immediately received minuses and is now trampling a little below zero.
The meaning is the same, the hubs are the same. But the response is surprisingly different.
Tell me, is this a common practice, or is it just a unique case? :-)

Answer 1

Because more than half of them are inadequate. There are over 9000 of them!

Answer 2

When an article is written on behalf of a company, the eye automatically looks for self-promotion and advertising bias in it.
When the same article is written by a private individual, [overly] positive evaluations of the article's subject matter are more likely to be seen as personal admiration rather than denim.

Answer 3

I almost never look at whether a post is from a company or a personal one, but I will note that posts “from companies” sometimes (or often?) Are inferior in objectivity to ordinary ones, because companies sometimes (or often?) do not mention competing solutions.

Answer 4

Companies make money. There are no idiots on Habré, because everyone understands this, 70% + companies will not pull a finger to write something useful, without benefit for themselves.

Answer 5

competitors minus

Answer 6

Or maybe the second topic was downvoted just for a repeat?
That is, if you first published this article on behalf of the company, and then - on behalf of yourself, then perhaps everything would be the other way around?

Answer 7

Either the articles are different or the same ... If two articles are one after the same and the same, then it is worth minus for this.
But if these are the articles that I see, then the articles are different, and the corporate article smells more like advertising.

Answer 8

Options:
— dealt with a product/company/service and did not like it;
- the feeling of bias is aggravated;
- if the authorship is on behalf of the company, people are waiting for a more serious article than the same thing on behalf of a person.
