Wayland
(https://wayland.freedesktop.org) 📸 Data Snapshot: May 24, 2026Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.
The site triggers a trust theatre flag due to a recorded review_count of 1 without any corresponding proof_links_count in the metadata. However, the visible text contains no traditional trust theatre elements like ‘Trusted by X’ badges or unverified customer logos. The high score in this pillar is a result of technical data discrepancies rather than actual marketing deception.
The ratio of verifiable evidence to claims is nearly 1:1. Every major technical claim about what Wayland is or does is followed by external proof paths, including mailing lists, IRC channels, and documentation for libwayland. The presence of specific technical specifications (evdev, modesetting, inter-process communication) provides a high degree of substance.
Trust & Proof is read by weighing trust language against real verification. Below is the page-by-page tally of review mentions and external proof links, then the schema markup that may (or may not) declare verifiable ratings and identity proof.
