Disclaimer: My startup is made to get user domains automatically onboarded to applications, DNS-related things such as SPF/DKIM/DMARC. It's a "Stripe-for-DNS" called cloudvalid.com.
I like the quality of this SPF/DKIM/DMARC guide. This is the industry I started out in, and I actually wrote the guides for SendGrid, Amazon SES, and a few other email products. I don't mind saying that author has done a better job at this than me.
That being said, I see SPF/DKIM/DMARC guides like this pop up with some regularity, but users continue to have the same level of comprehension as before. I think the nature of this problem is not one that lends itself to being solved by guides. It's the sort of problem that a user is really only faced with once, which means that they're not getting the repetitions in to warrant any long-term comprehension.
I'm naturally biased here, but if you're onboarding users with SPF/DKIM/DMARC to your application, it's good if you can just get them setup with automation.
As a remote, older professional now, my career nevertheless supports the premise of this article: in-office was beneficial when I started out.
My first job had a strong lunch culture, providing an environment for serendipitous conversations, daily. Over time, I bumped into folks I never would have met in the normal scope of my role, across finance, legal, SRE, support, sales, data science, etc.
In turn, as a young professional, I was able to develop a mental model for how businesses "work", why they're organized how they are, and how (good) culture can bind everyone together towards a profitable outcome. I made some friends and acquaintances that I'm still in touch with to this day.
As a remote, older professional now, I don't necessarily "need" these serendipitous conversations anymore, although I miss the general socialization. But I do feel like they're an essential "ladder" that every subsequent generation of professionals should be able to access, and that it's a moral obligation for me to "pay it forward".
For remote work to be "fair" to young professionals, its systems should facilitate the same career benefits, with the same effort.
