Could you elaborate on what makes these feel corporate? The design seems really modern and polished to me.

Trees for paper are specifically grown to produce paper pulp. They’re not cutting down virgin forest. You could argue it’s pretty monocultural but otherwise I don’t see much of s problem with it.
Yeah right, tilling arable lands and pulping more trees isn't a problem at all. Whatever happened to critical thinking.

(I work at Stripe.) We've made sure the process is carbon-neutral from forest to page. (And the paper itself is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.)

"really modern and polished" strikes my tastes as corporate in the world of zines. Just my opinion tho, not trying to gatekeep.
