It is always either that the license is not permissive enough, too many changes are required that upstream wouldn’t merge and its would be hard to keep rebased, showing the world that they can be absolutely independent, or not having enough experience and experts for given stack. Maybe I missed some reasons, but that’d be all I think of.
Either way, if it’s open sourced our company might switch.








Strange, postgres is usually not the one to die. My server is permanently running out of space, so I have to keep deleting shit, and my PG did not die once. On the other hand, my other very old server (not updated in 3 years) has it’s PG die (and automatically restart) at least once a day.
