Definitive guides are more important, and have more impact in the long run, especially if the topic is chosen well.

For instance, a guide on "Nomad with Apache Mesos and HAProxy" might be a little too specific, but a more general guide on any one of those specific tools, or on "Open Source Load Balancers in Container Orchestration Systems," would give people value for years.

Now, to make the debate a little less healthy, I think we all know you're going to get more eyeballs on short how-to articles with catchy titles. So do those.

As I said we all need to provide value and thank the comunity for the help we got to reach where we are.

Thanks for sharing your point of view @πŸ¦„N BπŸ›‘.

I am also glad that you enjoy this debate.
