You could do the same thing you did here but for the MacOS section bellow since they are kinda similar ;)

I'm sorry please do not touch any of the code block formatting, this will not look great on https://docs.invidious.io/companion-installation/

Don't touch the positioning of those code blocks.

Sorry I did this because the markdown alerts looked terrible on GitHub while the code was indented. I'll just remove the markdown alerts as it seems it's not compatible with most markdown standards anyway.

I'll just adjust the admonitions to work with the chosen theme.

This PR rewords the Invidious Companion Guide to be more authoritative and corrects grammar. It also adds mkdocs compatible callouts and increases readability.

I spent some significant time on this to make it more readable and it was easier to follow for me, but if you reject it. I totally understand.

Thanks, I'll take a look at it more closely when I'll have time.

Could you please test if that works great on the final version by launching mkdocs, the doc is here: https://github.com/iv-org/documentation#running-the-documentation-locally-for-development-purposes. Either use pip or docker. Thank you!
