Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several areas. Windows-specific guidance (such as installing and stopping Windows updates, configuring OneDrive, and autoshutdown for Windows VMs) is provided in detail, while equivalent Linux instructions are either missing or referenced only briefly. Windows tools and features (Windows updates, OneDrive, RDP) are mentioned explicitly, but Linux alternatives (such as Linux backup solutions or Linux-specific remote desktop options) are not discussed or are given less prominence. Examples and instructions often prioritize Windows scenarios over Linux, and some Linux-specific steps (like enabling remote desktop) are referenced but not explained in detail.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux guidance for steps currently focused on Windows, such as backup solutions (e.g., using rsync, Nextcloud, or other Linux-friendly cloud storage options).
- Include detailed instructions for configuring Linux updates and managing update interruptions, similar to the Windows update section.
- Offer parity in remote desktop setup instructions, including alternatives to RDP for Linux (such as VNC, xrdp, or NoMachine), and clarify differences in setup and user experience.
- Mention Linux-specific tools and patterns where Windows tools are referenced (e.g., alternatives to OneDrive for Linux users).
- Ensure that examples and instructions are provided for both Windows and Linux VMs, and avoid prioritizing Windows scenarios unless justified by usage statistics.
- Where features are OS-specific (like autoshutdown for Windows), clarify whether Linux equivalents exist or provide workarounds.
