Postgres, mysql, mariadb, cockroachdb, Prometheus, neo4j, firebase, dbaas. The list goes on and on.

Multiple things exist. That’s fine and healthy? You don’t need to know absolutely everything.

There's people out there who chose PostgreSQL twenty five years ago and found out since to have made the right choice. Not sure if that can be said of any item on the list you were responding to.

I would be thrilled to work someplace that uses neo4j. Such a good graph dbms. Too many folks believe the only way to organize data is with relational tables.
