I tried to make the title the exact opposite of clickbait. There are no unanswered questions on purpose. No "Find out if a kilobyte is 1024 bytes or 1000 bytes". I think people are smart enough that I not just reiterate for 20min why a kilobyte is 1000 bytes but instead go into more details.
The main problem is probably that people won't sacrifice 20min of there time on something they are not sure if it's a good read but the only thing I can do is trying to encourage them to read it anyway.
There are not ads, no tracking, no cookies, no login, no newsletter, no paywall. I don't benefit if you read it. I'd like to clear up misconceptions but I can't force people to read it.
You don't benefit financially, but there are other benefits. For example, you specifically asked for feedback, and you have received some.
I don't get feedback just because you read it. I'm thankful for feedback but my sentence was accurate. I don't benefit if you read it.
