The MVCC that Postgres uses(and no one else) is like 50yo outdated concept they still cling to. So just by virtue of that, it makes PGSQL the most archaic db on the market nowadays.

I never understood why PGSQL had so many fanboys, yet every major tech company always ditches it for mysql... i guess it is the case of "Any man who must say, "I am the King", is no true king." type of thing. People have to make a lot of noise to excuse their bad choices so they don't have to admit making a mistake.
