Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page is generally cross-platform and avoids OS-specific instructions for most steps. However, in the troubleshooting section ('Test the DNS resolution'), only a Windows-specific command ('ipconfig /flushdns') is provided for clearing the DNS cache, with no equivalent instructions for Linux or macOS users. This constitutes a 'windows_first' and 'missing_linux_example' bias.
Recommendations:
  • When providing troubleshooting steps that involve OS-specific commands (such as clearing the DNS cache), include equivalent instructions for Linux (e.g., 'sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches' or 'sudo resolvectl flush-caches') and macOS (e.g., 'sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder').
  • Consider using language such as 'On Windows...' and 'On Linux...' to make it clear that instructions are platform-specific, and provide parity for all major platforms.
  • Review the documentation for any other subtle Windows-first assumptions, and ensure that all users, regardless of OS, have the information they need to succeed.
