An extraordinarily arrogant approach to presenting a project.

The TEXT datatype is deprecated in most RDBMSs. A minor and insignificant point but following the 'remove the brown M&Ms' rider principle, it makes me question the integrity of everything else, especially given the insults in the readme and lack of professionalism throughout.

TEXT is absolutely not deprecated in Postgres, which this project is using for its example. It being deprecated by other RDMS seems irrelevant to mention.

It’s autist, I’ll allow it.

Why is the TEXT datatype deprecated ?
