The XTDB team has pivoted towards a SQL-first approach (though still supports datalog) and now 'only' has the 'But why not just use Postgres' problem to solve.
Having personally moved from trying to use Postgres for everything (including lots of timeseries data with Timescale) to a dedicated and relatively unknown DB built purely for the purpose I want it for (QuestDB), I am all for more people trying to build databases that do specific things better than Postgres. However, it will be very difficult to create something that does literally everything Postgres can do but better, which probably makes Postgres the sensible choice for the majority of applications.
