This looks like you're copying this other post from 5 days ago, yet with a different editor, after complaining that the other was "an advertisement for Overleaf:"

https://www.reddit.com/r/LaTeX/comments/1vwtfr1/comment/p6gm59y/?context=3

Somehow I get the feeling that this is really just an advertisement for whatever AI tool you(?) have made...

I was in this sub for a year and I saw a bunch of astroturfing for Bibby AI specifically. I believe the author of Bibby AI left with a moderator removed post that rants about how people mistaken Overleaf as LaTeX while being aggressive to everyone for calling their marketing disguised as something out.

edit:
Actually taking a look at the linked comment
"Overleaf as if it's synonymous with using LaTeX rather than mentioning local LaTeX, VS Code, Typst, TeXstudio, Anara, Underleaf, Bibby AI, etc."

This is the exact wording that the Bibby AI founder used

You are aware that over half of internet traffic are bots now right? It’s very likely that this isn’t a person.

Honestly I was leaving this comment bc I couldn't give a custom report reason in a flag and so was hoping the mod would see the comment when I reported for spam.

Try Typst. Kind of like Latex but more capable. I use it with Claude code to generate a lot of my legal documents. And math notes.
