Begin rant.
I don’t want to be that guy saying this, but 99% of the top results on google from Medium related to anything technical is literally the reworded/reframed version of the official quick start guide.
There are some very rare gems, but it is hard to find those among the above mentioned ocean of reworded quick starts disguised as “how to X”, “fixing Y”. Almost reminds me of the SEO junks when you search “how to restart iPhone” and find answers that dance around letting it die from battery drain and then charge, install this software, take it to the apple repair shop, go to settings and traverse many steps while not saying that if you are between these models use the power+volume up button trick.

Somebody who just summarizes tutorials can write like 10 medium posts, in the time it takes an actual practitioner to do something legitimately interesting.
