Well perhaps W3C's official site would rank higher if it actually offered any tutorials, i.e. the thing people are searching for, as opposed to a list of specifications and draft specifications that won't be finalized for 10 years.

In any case, "W3" is just another representation of 'www', which the W3C doesn't have any kind of claim over.

OpenAI isn't open. W3Schools is unaffiliated with the W3C. The world keeps spinning.

That's optimistic, optimistically. It's a group of ivory tower academics with no stake in any browser implementation acting like they have any right to tell actual browser implementors how to behave.

> acting like they have any right to tell actual browser implementors how to behave

Well, I totally prefer that, than letting Google decide by themselves

Have you ever had academics that have nothing to do with you, your company, or your product, tell you how to do your job?

And besides, what makes you think Google listens to them?

I disagree, "w3" doesn't have any official connotation, it is literally the name of the thing they are teaching (or the alternate spelling of the abbreviation, but same thing). It is a common pattern for a school that teaches [thing] to call themselves "[thing] school", nothing wrong there.

You're telling me it's unreasonable for people to mix up W3schools and W3C? lol

I agree with you.

The name is so confusing that if you search for "w3c" on DuckDuckGo, the first result is W3Schools, and then the official W3C website.
