Describing their response as "proactive" is about what you'd expect from a company that famously used unacknowledged writes to game benchmarks during their peak hype phase. Ironically, Mongo has been slower than PostgreSQL for years at JSON queries, the very thing at which it's supposed to excel, and especially relative to a "boring," "antiquated" relic like Postgres, which was started all the way back in 1985.

The real head-scratcher here is who is still using MongoDB, and why? It got to a point years ago where even "I told you so" types (like me) found it no longer necessary to pile on, given the wave of buyer's remorse postmortems from devs who bought into MongoDB's hype.
