What Hacker News says

Reminds me of other abandon things I’ve seen in this space before over the years like torodb[0] and pgmongo[1]. Peeking at this implementation, it seems very immature. There is a long road ahead. Good luck! I always suspected this space never matured because the effort to rewrite a mongo app to use postgres was less than providing a drop in mongo translation layer. Though I’ve never used mongo, I’ve always presupposed the set of people who pick mongo is a mutually exclusive from the set of people that pick Postgres. Perhaps this is proof of set intersection?
