Nextcloud asked in a poll at https://mastodon.social/@nextcloud@mastodon.xyz/115095096413238457 what database its users are running. Interestingly one fifth replied they don’t know. Should people know better where their data is stored, or is it a good thing everything is running so smoothly people don’t need to know what their software stack is built upon?

    Who cares.
    I’m only on MariaDB because I have brain worms, I have so little data on there SQLite would have been fine. 🪱 🪱 🪱

      I use Postgres, because MySQL touched me inappropriately as a kid and MariaDB is too similar. Oh, and also because it’s what I use at work.

      SQLite actually has incredible performance these days. But I get your point :)

      Exactly. Who gives a shit?

      I mean… I could recite the exact setup of mine in detail, but I’d probably be happier if my brain matter was dedicated to something else. Do not shame the ignorant. Envy them.
