Hey, Threadiverse! I’m looking for informed opinions on database choices.

I can stand up an Internet-facing application and have it use either MySQL or PostgreSQL. Which is the better choice, and why do you think so?

Thanks!

    As somebody who just watched a team implement MySQL for an app that only supported Postgres, I’d go with Postgres.

    I never want to use MySQL again. Postgres or SQLite for relational databases.
