  MariaDB is widely used, including by some extremely high-traffic sites like Wikipedia [1], as well as some quite large multinational businesses [2]. It may not be as widespread as MySQL, but that's no surprise; despite HN's disdain, MySQL is still one of the most widely-used open source databases in existence.

      Oh, huh I don't think I ever in my life considered what one's brand portfolio is when selecting which technology stack is good. But that explains why so many websites have big brand names on their homepage like "oracle and uber use us!" if some people actually care about that
