Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation is generally platform-neutral but contains a subtle Windows bias in the troubleshooting section. Specifically, when instructing users how to clear the DNS cache, only the Windows-specific command (`ipconfig /flushdns`) is provided, with no mention of equivalent commands for Linux or macOS. No PowerShell-specific commands or Windows-only tools are otherwise present, but the lack of Linux/macOS parity in this example can disadvantage non-Windows users.
Recommendations:
  • Include equivalent DNS cache flush instructions for Linux (e.g., `sudo systemd-resolve --flush-caches` or `sudo service nscd restart`) and macOS (e.g., `sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder`).
  • When giving OS-specific troubleshooting steps, present all major platforms together or link to platform-specific instructions.
  • Review other troubleshooting or command-line sections to ensure parity for Linux and macOS users.
