By mentioning MongoDB you’re going to trigger so many people who haven’t informed themselves on MongoDB since 2014.

It works just fine as a production database. You can still have relationships and strict schemas… I just don’t understand the hate.

My previous startup was running on MongoDB since 2014, and after 10 years, 1m+ users and hundreds of enterprise customers everything was just fine.

True, usually when I meet people who think so I always ask them what exactly went wrong. One time someone told me:

"we just let our frontend engineer build the whole backend and schema and it turned into a disaster and wasn't maintainable"

and I was like - so it's the database's fault? :)
