> MySQL has been one problem after another.

Please elaborate. MySQL/MaraiaDB can be pretty relaxed when it comes to SQL standards (which you can disable/tweak), but I've yet to have data loss or data corruption. And speaking from experience - the system would be at it's knees and MySQL would happily do it's best to answer queries.

I'm not saying Postgres isn't stable (haven't really used it) - I'm just rather suspicious of the comments here. I find it hard to believe that it's as broken as people here claim when big businesses are using it [1].
