Can we try to avoid the use of "walled garden", it has negative connotation. We only support the user unlocking the data which legally belongs to them, without violating TOS.

I'd keep the "walled garden" metaphor. I like it, but I'll add a brief disclaimer to clarify our intent.

same here, we are a neutral project. Sometimes it is in the platform's TOS that the user's are not allowed legally to take their data elsewhere. We respect those TOS.

build on the "data capital" of incumbents
Mentioning incumbents can also be avoided.

I agree with Dan that our documentation should remain "matter of fact"/neutral. We can keep rhetorical/motivational content within the blog |

I agree with keeping the documentation “matter-of-fact” and neutral. That said, I see the Motivation page as an exception. If this is a strict requirement for you, I can move the motivation page out of the docs folder, next to About. |
