They've sponsored tons of hackathons, so it's super popular there. But to me, a big part of hackathons is learning something new, and MongoDB is apparently just not worth learning.

Evidence for those claims that MongoDB is "fast" never materialized, nobody really knew where the claim came from, yet it was constantly repeated. They sponsor a lot of hackathons, and so on.
