I've never quite understood the w3schools hate. It can be quite useful.

My most used page is this one when I need to jog my memory: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.php

It's much better than this one: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_selecto...

Or any of the other results on the first page

This feature is Kagi's single best innovation in search. It's what makes their results so much better than Google's: where Google's results are usually drowning in garbage websites, Kagi comes built-in with a great set of spam filters, and on top of that you can adapt your own personal list of good and bad domains as you go!

my 2 cents:

w3schools tend to oversimplify the concepts to the point of technical inaccuracy.

and the tone of the articles read more like tutorials instead of reference manuals.

Yeah MDN is the de-facto reference guide for web frameworks. W3schools feels like beginner tutorials. For me, I want “what happens if I pass undefined as the second arg to this function” and w3schools doesn’t answer that. It’s fine as a site, I suppose, it was insane when it outranked more complete websites. Off topic I see this more and more with Stackoverflow where semi-related questions outrank official docs.
