Well, who is using mysql/mariadb nowadays anyways? If you haven’t made the switch to at least postgres in the past 5 years, you messed up anyways.

MySQL sucks, and almost everyone who willingly use it also sucks.

Though I think it has some level of support for postgres by now. I should check on that.

I hope this won’t have any negative effects on PostgreSQL which will hopefully not have to cater the MySQL refugees now.

I am a bit out of the loop in terms of RDBMS history, what do you mean by MySQL refugees?

MySQL refugees = those who ran to MariaDB when MySQL was bought by 'Orrible and now need another new home. Accidentally, PostgreSQL has grown support for some of MySQL on recent versions.

Hummm… Can someone tell me if this is good news or bad news?

Generally a buy-out is mostly bad news, but I can’t tell here in this specific case.

MariaDB.com is separate from MariaDB.org that does the development, so it shouldn’t be too bad.

Then again, the folks working at MariaDB.com might have a different opinion.

Unpopular opinion?: without wordpress, mysql/mariadb would have died years ago.

There were so many web apps written in the early 00s on the LAMP stack, including Facebook. And that’s not counting the tiny internal applications that so many businesses have that use MySQL/MariaDB. Because these are business critical applications, they pay Oracle/MariaDB for support.
