No, not at all. It unsurprising that an open source project has positive mindshare. I just think that the spree of articles, all with the same anti-Unity bent, being posted within hours of each other isn't a coincidence.
That doesn't mean people don't genuinely like Godot, just that it looks as if someone has an agenda to make sure that's the case.
Apart from one repost of this article, search tells me there have been five Godot articles in the last month, none of which have had anything that looks like an "anti-Unity bent," and no others were posted on the same day. The only ones that got any traction (besides this one) were about fog volumes and UI design.
I think maybe you're conflating pro-Godot comments in recent threads in reaction to news about Unity with articles being posted and seeing a hidden agenda that isn't there.
