I posted my thought on another thread too : https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40231332

- Postgres documentation is one of the well maintained database documentations. This also means that developers, committers ensure changes to documentations for every relevant patch.

- talk about bugs in postgres compared to MySQl or Oracle or etc databases. Bugs are comparatively lesser or generally rare even if you are supporting postgres services as a vendor with lots of customers. the reason is the efforts involved by a strong team of developers in not accepting anything and everything, there are strict best practices, reviews, discussions, tests, and a lot more that makes it difficult for a patch or a feature to make it to a release.

- ultimately, more easy is the acceptance of a patch, more the number of bugs.

I love Postgres the way it is today and it still is the dbms of the year and developers most loved database.

I wish we have more Contributors, committers, developers and also users and companies supporting Postgres so that the time to push a feature gets more faster and reasonably easier with more support.
