devs assume the readers already know when they write documentation
Bad documentation is a widespread problem and for some reason tech literate people (mostly Linux users) are in complete denial about this. It's well known that tech people, as well as the engineers who build the technology, haven't the first clue about how to transfer their knowledge into human readable form. Manpages are a great example. Completely indecipherable to me, because they only briefly explain what individual commands do rather than explain how or why you use them. Shitty AI articles using second hand information do a better job of explaining how to use a program.
The Arch Linux is celebrated as one of the best documentation sources on the internet but I have an easier time reading Nietzsche, it sends you halfway across the internet just so you've got the prerequisites, and then fails to explain key things because it's supposed to be obvious. And you've got Linux neckbeards telling you to RTFM and "skill issue", and no wonder Linux has such a small desktop share.
Bit of a rant but yeah, it's annoying. Tech people, especially developers, need to understand that they aren't the only ones using the internet.
