Same here, I have no idea why it doesn't get more press, as far as I'm concerned it's the best document store out there. Mongo has gotten away with some pretty substantial misses, yet still get considered every time NoSQL comes up (maybe first-to-market is really just that powerful), but RethinkDB rarely gets one, despite being so stable and having so many good features. And when I say mongo has gotten away with substantial misses, I don't mean the documentation miss that lead to documents getting dropped, I mean core issues with their engine that necessitated the wiredtiger contributions/rewrite. Of course, mongo works very well generally, and they've definitely done their part when it comes to documentation and growing the community, and carving the path for what NoSQL document stores (in this day and age) look like.
