SQLite competes with fopen. Not Postgres

It’s curious how many people don’t understand what SQLite is and its intended feature set. They get huffy that it’s not a full client server model with multimaster clustering across 8 data centers on 12 continents plus New Zealand with realtime synchronous replication.

It’s a product that allows you to do sql like things without a database server. If you need to have database server behavior, you’re using the wrong product.

		Well, it goes both ways. You'll see articles saying essentially "you don't need Postgres or any other fancy database, SQlite is enough" while ignoring the fact that some use-cases warrant a more conventional DB server. Different tools for different situations!
