I like this section included in the release PDF:
0.1.3 − Is Plan 9 a cult run by scam artists?
From a newcomer's perspective, it feels like dealing with a cult run by scam artists. It seems someone wants to profit from me by selling books on Amazon, like a multi-level marketing group. People say others here are on a spectrum, but it feels more like psychosis, with a loss of contact with reality. I really feel like I'm being gaslighted. I might seem like a troll, but you don't understand how you appear to others.

Why not research it yourself instead of asking others? Am I the only one who thinks this is becoming increasingly common?

"We" don't research it ourselves because we are increasingly taught that we are either too stupid to conduct our own research or not qualified to understand the results, and we must rely on someone else who represents a position of authority. Preferably politicians/influencers/marketing departments/AI models/etc. which can then direct us to make purchasing decisions of benefit to our masters.

No, this kind of comment and the "I misread it as xyz" / "I thought this was about abc" comments are getting really annoying.
