There are a lot of people still on it, including the place I worked at last.
It was starting to get expensive though, so we were experimenting with other document stores (dynamodb was being trialled, since we were already AWS for most things, just around the time I left)

that’s what I thought, but every single candidate I interviewed mentioned MongoDB as their recent reference document database, I asked the last candidate if they were self-hosting, the answer is no, they used MongoDB cloud.

Pretty sure they achieved fiscal nirvana by exploiting enterprise brain rot. You hook em, they accumulate tech debt for years, all their devs leave, now they can't move away & you can start increasing prices. Eventually the empty husk will topple over but that's still years away.

Is it possible that they simply have a good product?

Impossible! It's not based on sqlite, postgres or written in rust, so it must be terrible!

Then they get acquired by BloodMoor and they squeeze every last cent out of the remaining customers.
