Naw, developers will always be enthusiastic about stuff even if it's crap. I used to really like SQLite and think that I should use it for everything, but after using it for a couple years I realized it's just not the right tool for most things. It doesn't help that I usually mess up my joins and lead to undetected data loss.

I really wanted to use SQLite client side for the data in my dictionary web app, but I ended up fighting the structure too much. Ultimately I wrote my own binary format with indexes from scratch that work how I like them.

I've never used Postgres though.

I've been enthusiastic about a lot of things, C, libsdl, Linux, ffmpeg, vim, and as a developer this obsession is the norm rather than the exception.
