It's because of things like that it's still hard for me to respect MySQL in 2022. I use Postgres since 2008. It has never bitten me even once.

- ars 5y agoFor something that was fixed 12 years ago? If Postgres has never bitten you, then you aren't using it much.
- mikl 5y agoIt’s not fixed. MySQL still has a datatype called “utf8” that, in fact, is not utf-8 but a limited subset thereof. PostgreSQL has some sharp edges, sure, but a lot less obvious footguns like these.
