When Oracle bought MySQL, developers really started looking hard at Postgres.
MySQL developers peeking over the fence at Postgres realized their database lagged way behind Postgres when it came to transactional DDL statements, window functions, basically most modern SQL stuff. MySQL was just sloppy from a developer's perspective... weird nonstandard SQL RDBMS behavior in places.
I've heard that MySQL has made nice strides in recent years. Cool, I guess. Not really trying to tie my future to Oracle.
