How is this related to https://docs.divio.com/documentation-system/ ? Looks incredibly identical.

This was discussed in the thread a couple days ago about board game rulebook design. I had a similar question (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42302038 - although I phrased it more like wondering if Procida had been ripped off) and got some insightful replies.
In short: it looks identical because it's substantially his work, that he did while employed there. In fact, he's the one giving the talk in the PyCon Australia video there.

Explained in https://diataxis.fr/colophon/#origins-and-development. No malfeasance! But I wish Divio would take that down, it's past its sell-by date now, and I think I got quite a few things in it wrong.

I actually find the contrasting approaches (see discussion elsethread about the terminology used in the diagram) helpful and it's always good to have historical context.
I agree that the Divio site would be well-served by directing folks to/acknowledging the newer site (as the newer site does).
