I wonder how it feels to be running or working for a company that develops a product that almost all informed members of the developer community think is bad. They must be in some serious denial.


You say 'informed members', but most of the mongo hate seems to stem from bad reputation from the early days. Most of the hate seems to come from historical bandwagoning, rather than informed DBAs commenting on current versions.

For a long time here on HN, mongo was terrible, never to be trusted, and everyone should move to RethinkDB. But the RethinkDB boat has now foundered, and might be resuscitated by the LF, or it might sink again. If you'd followed the zeitgeist, you'd be in a worrisome spot right now.
