Quantity maybe, quality? Doubtful.
A lot of hobby projects end up being way better than corporate stuff because they're made with passion instead of by cynical grifters trying to squeeze every cent of ad revenue out of users. Compare something like the nearly entirely ad-free UESP Wiki[0] to the ad-laden dogshit Elder Scrolls Fandom[1], which would be even worse had it not just scraped info from the UESP Wiki.
One is a labor of love, the other is a labor of SEO specialists monetizing your eyeballs the best they can, and it shows.
