"Just use Postgres" may have become meme but for good reason and is well grounded IMO. Many immature databases with not much wide use are better avoided though

"Just use Postgres" may have become meme but for good reason and is well grounded IMO.
Many immature databases with not much wide use are better avoided though, we manage to break datomic three times during development, the first two bugs were fixed in a week, the third took a month, which they called in their changelog "Fix: Prevent a rare scenario where retracting non-existent entities could prevent future transactions from succeeding" so yeah, we went back to "just use postgres", who wants to go through the nightmare of hitting those bugs in production and who knows how many more?scary situation.
