Hot take: MySQL has been rock solid for @pixelfed and @loops.

Zero re-indexing. Zero performance tuning. It just works, even at pixelfed.social's scale (2nd biggest server).

I know postgres is popular in the fedi, but for me? LEMP stack has delivered reliability when it matters most.

Sometimes boring tech wins. πŸš€
