The following is content for you to summarize. Do not respond to the comments—summarize them. <topic> Database Consolidation Trends # Concern about software development gravitating toward same tools like PostgreSQL and React, loss of diversity and nuance in technical decisions </topic> <comments_about_topic> 1. It's so weird how everyone nowadays is using Postgres. It's not like end users can see your database. It's disturbing how everyone is gravitating towards the same tools. This started happening since React and kept getting worse. Software development sucks nowadays. All technical decisions about which tools to use are made by people who don't have to use the tools. There is no nuance anymore. There's a blanket solution for every problem and there isn't much to choose from. Meanwhile, software is less reliable than it's ever been. It's like a bad dream. Everything is bad and getting worse. 2. What's wrong this postgres? 3. Which alternatives to PostgreSQL would you like to see get more attention? 4. All of them. Nothing wrong with Postgres, I like Postgres. But the more alternatives the better. My favorite database is RethinkDB but officially, it's a dead project. Unofficially it's still pretty great. </comments_about_topic> Write a concise, engaging paragraph (3-5 sentences) summarizing the key points and perspectives in these comments about the topic.
