Why is MySQL mainly chosen for web development?

Question

MySQL

Many people write that PostgreSQL is better in everything, but they still choose mysql for web development

Answer 1

Yes, no one is better. This holivar lasts for about an eternity and never ends. Each of these technologies solves approximately the same tasks, but in a slightly different way. That's all.

Answer 2

low entry threshold

Answer 3

For simple to medium projects, MySQL is easier to administer (more jack-of-all-trades to handle issues as they arise)
