Have a look to this statement in the doc you linked:

"""
For geometry: The distance is specified in units defined by the spatial
reference system of the geometries. For this function to make sense, the
source geometries must both be of the same coordinate projection, having
the same SRID.

For geography units are in meters and measurement is defaulted to
use_spheroid=true, for faster check, use_spheroid=false to measure along
sphere.
"""
