MongoDB supports a variety of sorts of ACID transactions in the current day and age

But as I prev. said NoSQL is not limited to Mongo
Ppl hate nosql cuz of mongo when there are other dbs, e.g RavenDB

It is just ACID vs BASE

I don't hate nosql. I nothing it. I do not have any knowledge or skillset that includes it. I am most definitely naive towards any strengths and capabilities it may have over an SQL database.
I also have no reason to learn it at this time, an SQL database wins uncontested whenever I need to store data.
If I was to start a new project I wouldn't pick that moment to learn a new programming language. Same thing, different part of the stack
Honestly what it'd take would be the next WordPress or whatever using nosql by default. Make it need learning

Do you have a reference to that article?

Honestly we're talking at least a decade ago or so at this point, sorry.
It was a first impressions thing that stopped any further investigation, not a comment on the current state of NoSQL

I've set up databases, I've broken databases, I've restored databases, I've scaled databases, and I've migrated them. Never lost so much as a nibble of data.
My introduction to NoSQL was an article about Mongo losing someone's production data. Not even all of the data - partial data loss, the worst kind of data loss.
I'm just gonna head off that massive headache at day 0 and use an ACID compliant database.
From there it's lack of experience. Same reason I wouldn't decide to write my next thing in a new language unless I was specifically learning that language.
