Looks like some real issues with trademark violation in the way they are pitching their product.


Yep, the implied officiality of "the next evolution of SQLite" is creepy and deceptive positioning.

Their "about" page explains a lot — they're disastrously top-heavy with investors and have been in a holding pattern for 3 years (according to CrunchBase), and so don't have a choice but to kill the king or die trying.


there is a zero percent chance the significant users of SQLite are going to switch from to some shit VC backed re-implemented knockoff

the deceptive marketing to try and replace an honest bedrock of computing is disgusting

I don't know if your prediction is correct.

What if it has CDC which makes it easy to build a central data warehouse?


Embrace, extend, extinguish.


I tried to add it to ClickBench, but the first CREATE TABLE statement leads to panic in Rust: https://github.com/tursodatabase/turso/issues/2058


Seems odd to name the database the same as the company and saas offering.


Interesting. Even with DST, I still question their reliability. I don't think even modern techniques can beat SQLite's decades of testing.
