Because it seems like you only post links to one site from which you derive personal benefit, and don’t feel it’s necessary to disclose that to your audience.

Ok? But does writing the post myself reduce the quality? or validity of the information? I find it weird that people don’t like it when others share their work. It’s research none the less, not spam.

I don’t think Lemmy is a platform where such disclosure would be necessary. What difference does it make if OP discloses this or not?

Perspective is always biased. Telling people you work for the company helps explain why the person is posting so much from that single source and helps readers be informed regarding potential bias (intentional or unintentional).

This can help to combat misinformation and foster better conversations knowing that the poster will discuss things from a company positive point of view that not every would share.
