My experience recently and historically has been the exact opposite. Postgres seems to blow up in more mysterious and hair-yankingly frustrating ways than MySQL does. "Why Uber Engineering moved from Postgres to MySQL" echos a lot of the issues I've had with Postgres in large production environments.

Uber’s use of PostgreSQL was a mess. It’s probably the worst example of why not to use PostgreSQL.
