Starter page improvements

I was looking at the starter page (https://www.factorio.com/starter-page) and it seems as if the content hasn't been updated since 0.15, and a lot of things have changed since then.
Just thinking it might be useful for the starter page to have updated information, not to confuse new players.

I think it's mainly the 'In Game Campaign' * (maybe, I don't play campaign really but I know there has been a ton of back and fourth with it lately) and for sure the 'Videos' section that need to be updated (the part with the .15 tutorial).

You can see the /content page has been updated recently, and /videos page has been updated since .17 but the tutorial there is all so out of date .16.

A quick google shows there is a .17 tutorial atm from Sept.

But .17 is still in experimental, so it could very well be on purpose? Really don't know considering there is a .17 overview there.

0.17 is stable (more specifically 0.17.79).
0.18 is experimental so far.

How it comes that factorios experimental versions are much better since some AAA titles? (Stability, Performance, Playability ) :roll:

edit: i just found out that you can write invisible text in the forum if you make a bracket around your sentence LOL ^^ there is invisible text above couldnt reproduce but something about the sentence make it invisible.
