Follow-up to the review comments on #604 and #605, applied to the posts already live in /compare and /learn (26 posts).

What changes

  • Screenshots of other vendors' pages removed. About 180 images (vendor landing, pricing, plan, licence, docs and limits pages). Each fact stays as text with a link to the vendor page and the check date. Our own diagrams, covers and screenshots of OLake's own site and docs are kept.

  • Vendor claims use one pattern. Every price, plan, limit and licence claim ends with a link and (checked Oct 2026). Claims about what a competitor does not support or limits now link the page that shows them.

  • Review-site quotes. Negative-only quotes and the sharp ones are removed (including "absurdly expensive"). Where a tool keeps a quote it has a date and a link, and each section keeps the "one person's view" line.

  • OLake notes. The OLake repository is linked at Apache 2.0 mentions, the deletion vector claim cites the v0.11.0 release note, and the Snowflake Horizon route (v0.11.0) is stated next to the read-only external-catalog note.

  • FAQ answers render. 23 FAQ answers on master showed raw [text](url) or backticks because <Faq> prints plain strings as text. All FAQ answers in these posts are now JSX with real links.

  • Wrong or stale claims fixed after an independent review of every post (for example Estuary variant columns, Hevo connector count, Databricks Lakeflow plan prices, Flink CDC SQL Server support, a DMS CDC fee line, Airbyte Core licence wording).

  • Quotes follow the pair rule. Where a tool had only one side, the quote is removed.

Notes

  • No post is added or renamed. A few quiz strings changed where a claim changed.
  • npm run build passes with no broken links or image warnings.
  • OLake's own home-page captures are removed too (they show third-party customer logos). Five diagrams were redrawn to match the text.
  • The monthly refresh skill and reminder are in a separate PR. The rules are in the SOP (section 5.7) in Add five posts: Snowflake, streaming, big data #604.

- remove screenshots of other vendors' pages from all 26 /compare and
  /learn posts and state the same facts as dated text with a link
- link every competitor limit, price and licence claim to the vendor page
  and add a "(checked Oct 2026)" suffix
- drop negative-only and sharp review-site quotes, keep balanced pairs
- link the OLake repository at Apache 2.0 mentions, cite the v0.11.0
  release note for deletion vectors, and state the Snowflake Horizon route
- FAQ answers use JSX links so they render, not raw markdown (23 answers
  on master showed raw links or backticks)
- fix wrong or stale claims (Estuary variant columns, Hevo connector count,
  Lakeflow plan prices, Flink CDC SQL Server, MySQL BINARY bullet, DMS CDC
  fee, Airbyte Core licence wording, several prices and dates)
- keep review-site quotes only as a positive and negative pair
- add the "(checked Oct 2026)" suffix to remaining price, plan, limit and
  licence claims and link every competitor limit
- remove the OLake home page screenshots and redraw four diagrams

Context: this is the follow-up sweep you asked for, covering the 26 posts already live (including the five from #605). Same rules as #604: no vendor screenshots (about 185 removed), every competitor limit linked with (checked Oct 2026), quotes only as a positive and negative pair, repo link at Apache 2.0 mentions. It also fixes 23 FAQ answers that showed raw markdown on the live site, and several wrong or stale facts an independent review found (for example Estuary variant columns, the Hevo connector count, Lakeflow plan prices, a false MySQL BINARY bullet). The five #605 posts here replace the content #608 would revert, so closing #608 and merging this gives the same result without removing them.

The covers and diagrams of the live posts name each product in text. Only
OLake's own mark is drawn. About 40 images are redrawn and the social
cards for the 14 changed covers are regenerated.

Resolve the og-images manifest conflict: keep this branch's hashes for the
redrawn covers and add the five cover entries from datazip-inc#604.
