I'm halfway convinced that Datadog is so popular for the exact same reason.
- Kye 2y agoI inherently trust companies with fursonas more. This is 100% Disney's fault.
- TeMPOraL 2y agoCuriously, I'm the opposite. I feel the cutesy companies and products in baby care space are just cringe at best, and scams exploiting emotionally-drained parents at worst; my instinct is to trust things that look like medical devices more. And I inherently distrust anything associated with furries. 0_o.
- Kye 2y agoI've got some bad news about all the tech companies you interact with.

- jalk 2y agoSnuggle fabric softener immediately springs to mind here
- lupusreal 2y agoYeah, my take is that companies with strong marketting efforts, particularly emotionally manipulative ones, are trying to compensate for something. That something is usually poor value products (which might be well made but overpriced.)
- sublinear 2y agoI think you're correct. I'm finding it difficult to think of a worse toilet paper brand or more annoying ads than Charmin. That stuff is basically useless and no other brand has the issues they claim to solve in their ads. It's the kind of propaganda you'd expect from a cult.
- antupis 2y agoDatadog popularity is due the fact that you can throw logs in it and it just works and the dashboard is quite nice same cannot be said about competitors.
