Database Version Numbering Chaos
PostgreSQL: releases a major version every year. MySQL: jumps from 5.7 to 8.0 for no reason. MariaDB: jumps from 5.5 to 10.0 to show it's better than MySQL. ClickHouse: ties version number to a year. SQLite: stays at 3.x since 1847.
A tweet compares how different database systems choose their version numbers. The joke exaggerates SQLite’s famously stable 3.x major version by pretending it has remained there since 1847, while portraying the other projects’ numbering as arbitrary, competitive, or calendar-based. It is used as a humorous reaction to confusing software versioning.
