#10What are some reasons to use MariaDB over PostgreSQL?
My reason has been relative simplicity. PostgreSQL comes off as much more complex (though whether that is actually true is probably dependent on what you're doing with it).
I'm also not working with super-high-performance production-critical loads, though, so grain of salt and all that.
