Summary:
The documentation provides a troubleshooting step for clearing the DNS cache that only mentions the Windows-specific command (`ipconfig /flushdns`) and does not provide equivalent instructions for Linux or macOS users. No Linux or cross-platform alternatives are mentioned in this context, which may cause confusion or exclusion for non-Windows users.
Recommendations:
- When providing troubleshooting steps that involve OS-specific commands (such as clearing DNS cache), include equivalent commands for Linux (e.g., `sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches` or `sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart`) and macOS (e.g., `sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder`).
- Wherever possible, use cross-platform language and examples, or explicitly mention steps for all major operating systems.
- Review the documentation for other subtle Windows-first assumptions, such as screenshots, terminology, or tool references, and ensure Linux/macOS parity.
