Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation generally maintains cross-platform neutrality but exhibits subtle Windows bias in the DNS configuration section. The hosts file path is listed as '%SystemDrive%\drivers\etc\hosts' (Windows) before '/etc/hosts' (Linux, macOS), and a related link in 'Related content' points to a Windows 2000 Server DNS article. No Linux-specific tools or commands are mentioned, and no Linux-first or Linux-only examples are provided.
Recommendations:
  • List Linux and Windows hosts file paths in parallel or alternate the order to avoid 'windows_first' bias.
  • Provide links to cross-platform or Linux/macOS-specific DNS configuration documentation, not just Windows resources.
  • Include example commands for editing the hosts file on both Windows (e.g., using Notepad with admin rights) and Linux/macOS (e.g., using sudo nano or vi).
  • Where possible, reference cross-platform tools or provide equivalent instructions for both operating systems.
  • Review 'Related content' to ensure Linux and macOS users are equally supported with relevant links.
