Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Windows-centric tools and terminology. The only example for testing DNS records uses 'nslookup' from a 'command prompt', which is typically associated with Windows environments. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples (such as using 'dig' or referencing a Linux shell), and the documentation does not mention how to perform these steps on Linux or macOS systems.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS equivalents for DNS testing, such as showing how to use 'dig' or 'host' commands.
  • Clarify that 'nslookup' is available on multiple platforms, but provide explicit instructions for both Windows (Command Prompt/PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Terminal).
  • Add screenshots or terminal outputs from Linux/macOS environments where appropriate.
  • Use neutral terminology such as 'open a terminal' instead of 'open a command prompt', and specify platform-specific instructions where needed.
  • Consider a section or callout that highlights cross-platform compatibility for all steps, especially for command-line operations.
