I've never heard of K1.
Should we expect MariaDB enshittification to ensure?
I'm not reading that as a "no" :(
MariaDB is actually two separate entities: The company MariaDB and the MariaDB organization. The company sells enterprise licenses and support, and the organization manages the actual development. So there's a little separation that will at least slow the enshittification.
Ah, good to know.
I did know there were two sides of it (we explored MariaDB Enterprise at work, but unfortunately it didn't pan out).
Any more, I just assume one company buying any other always results in a worse experience post-sale.
MariaDB tried to go public a while back and their stock price tanked immediately and never recovered. If they hadn't gotten acquired I imagine they'd have gone out of business.
Exactly. And so it begins.
They plan to send the mission into orbit using an North Korean missile, for maximum acceleration.
/S
So MariaDB will explode halfway to Japan?
Hopefully it means more people working on it. But honestly, I use Postgres, so it doesn't particularly matter to me what "accelerate" means for them.
