I find I do not like it - it's much more of a pain to work with than mysql is. Do you have any opinions about meria d/b? Are there improvements over the flaws you're aware of with mysql?
Mariadb being a fork of mysql likely inherited mysql's "inconsistencies". Not that I would say mysql (and mariadb surely) folks are not working on improvements. E.g., the default installation of latest mysql does not have any accounts with empty password (I was weeding these away for years with every new installation of mysql. Oh, well, maybe I'm wrong, as this I just had seen fixed on FreeBSD, so it is possible that package maintainer did this nice cleaning).
