There's nothing I can add to Zimoun & Maxim's excellent answers.

I completely agree with Maxim: this is a feature, a positive choice; not a bug, nor some fearful refusal to hear loud 'voices' that are already wildly overrepresented.

If the urge to promote proprietary software/vendors/misinformation/status quo is so strong,   *almost the entire Internet* is available to do so.  Literally.  No need to insist we give up our space, or slather it with false balance.  A lot of us would leave.

Just a note on 'moderation': as a 'moderator': I weed out spammy spams (many, so many, a day) and trolly trolls (once a year in a good year).  I have never moderated good-faith conversation beyond that - as long as it doesn't veer into either.

Kind regards,

T G-R
