Summary:
The documentation generally avoids OS-specific instructions, but in the troubleshooting section for clearing DNS cache, it only provides a Windows-specific command (`ipconfig /flushdns`) and does not mention Linux or macOS equivalents. This presents a subtle Windows-first bias and omits guidance for users on other platforms.
Recommendations:
- When providing troubleshooting steps like clearing DNS cache, include equivalent commands 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`).
- Wherever possible, avoid OS-specific instructions unless all major platforms are covered equally.
- If screenshots or UI instructions are platform-agnostic (as in this case), ensure any command-line or troubleshooting advice is also cross-platform.
- Consider adding a note or table summarizing common DNS cache clearing commands for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
