I always choose w3schools over MDN because:
* w3school's examples are no-nonsense and much easier to understand, with simple working examples. MDN's pages typically read more like academic references.
* w3schools typically choose compatibility over the most "modern" way to write something, and compatibility matters a lot to me. MDN basically ignores most browsers that are not in the dominant majority.
* w3schools pages are simple and load faster and are less gimmicky. MDN has weird markup with multiple scrollable areas on the same page, which is completely inaccessible to me.
