You do realize how many major (aka Top 1000) websites are powered by MySQL don't you? It's easy to dismiss MySQL if you're stuck with experience from <5.x, but the latest versions are actually quite good. I still prefer Postgres for many things, but MySQL definitely doesn't deserve to be cringe worthy anymore, imho.
