Summary:
The documentation shows a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific guidance (such as installing/stopping Windows updates and configuring OneDrive) is provided in detail, while Linux-specific instructions are less prominent or missing. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., OneDrive, Windows Updates, RDP) are mentioned explicitly, and Windows scenarios are often described before or in more detail than Linux equivalents. Linux examples, especially for backup solutions and update management, are missing.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples and guidance alongside Windows instructions, especially for common administrative tasks such as system updates and backup solutions.
- When mentioning Windows tools (e.g., OneDrive), also mention Linux-friendly alternatives (e.g., Google Drive, Dropbox, or generic SFTP/rsync solutions) and provide configuration links or steps.
- Ensure parity in remote access instructions: if RDP is discussed for Windows, provide equal detail for SSH and RDP on Linux, including links to relevant documentation.
- Avoid assuming Windows as the default by presenting both Windows and Linux options together (e.g., 'For Windows, do X; for Linux, do Y').
- Include examples or links for configuring automatic updates and security patches on Linux VMs, similar to the Windows update guidance.
- When discussing client software for connecting to VMs, mention popular Linux and Mac clients (e.g., Remmina, KRDC, Terminal SSH) alongside Windows clients.
