alt Hacker NewsFacebook, Reddit, and LinkedIn are all being heavily astroturfed by Anthropic people to oversell the usefulness of Claude Code. It's actually wild.

I am surprised by how many people don't know that Claude Code is an excellent product. Nevertheless, PR / influencer astroturfing makes me not want to use a product, which is why I use Claude in the first place and not any OpenAi products.

This site seems astroturfed too. But tbh it's pretty good marketing compared to just buying ads.
It's interesting to see this sentiment, given there are literal dozens of people I know in person who have no affiliations with Anthropic, living in Tokyo, and rave about Claude Code. It is good. Not perfect, but it does a lot of good stuff that we couldn't do before because of time restrictions.
