Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. In the 'Check VM requirements' section, Windows VM support is listed before Linux VM support, and instructions for updating trusted root certificates are explicit for Windows (install Windows updates), while Linux guidance is generic ('follow the Linux distributor guidance') with no concrete steps or examples. No command-line examples (PowerShell, Bash, CLI) are present, but when platform-specific details are mentioned, Windows is prioritized or described in more detail.
Recommendations
  • Present Windows and Linux VM support information in parallel, or alternate the order in which they are listed.
  • Provide explicit Linux instructions for updating trusted root certificates and CRLs, including example commands for popular distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS).
  • Where Windows-specific steps are given, ensure Linux equivalents are described with similar detail.
  • Include CLI or script examples for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash/Azure CLI) where relevant.
  • Review other sections for subtle platform prioritization and ensure equal coverage for Linux users.
