Not advocating MongoDB, but I think if we base our opinions solely on how things were 2 years ago, we would end up still basing our opinions on how things were 10 years ago. Software breaks, 'poor' design decisions are made, etc, but at the same time, 2 years is a lot of time for improvements to be made.

My HTML5 app failed me 3 years ago, I've now been recommending that everyone stay away from HTML5. /s

Maybe it's just me, but I don't know if I could ever trust an engineering culture that thought succeed-without-acknowledgement was a good default. At least not as a primary source of truth system. There are plenty of databases that take data seriously and have from the beginning. I'd probably just use one of those.

You realize that was resolved 1.5 years ago, right? Also, it was a driver-level implementation. Comments like this make you sound more troll and less informative.
