Nuke redundant pages from docs/migrate firmware docs to MrChromebox's site

[sadlerm4]

In light of MrChromebox's updated site, it might be a good opportunity to discuss the future direction and content of the docs in order not to unnecessarily duplicate effort.

I suggest that #159 can become a PR on MrChromebox's website repo instead, and perhaps #138 can as well.

In theory, the entire firmware, unbricking and reverting sections can be removed.

I dont see any reason why the redundancy is a ossue

it makes it more difficult to keep up to date when the data is in 2 different places. Nothing is preventing the user from reading the other website either

No one's going to read it if they can just get the information from https://docs.mrchromebox.tech

The opportunity is also there to overhaul the layout of the supported devices table since it does not really need to include firmware-related support info. It's also debatable whether it needs to include Windows support info either, when once again people aren't reading it when they can just go to https://coolstar.org/chromebook/windows.html

I would not be surprised if the docs are practically only seen by people who want to install Linux at this point.

Yeah I agree that it would be better to move the firmware pages to MrChromebox's website since they are needed more on the firmware dedicated website.

Closing as this is not the direction that the project is considering, which is perfectly fine. Here's to making the docs the best that they can be, and I appreciate all of you for what you do.

Why dont we do this? MrChromebox actively maintains the firmware page and we dont have to worry about adding new devices. Not to mention, the users can know the features or upgrades they may get by upgrading

I'm not aware of any discussion on here or on Discord which would lead you to believe this
