OurSQL exists, it's called MariaDB. It was forked from MySQL when Oracle bought it and started to fuck with it.

When vibecoders let the slopmachine set up a "My"SQL database and don't check where it stores the API key.
Fuck yeah
You forgot to name your daughter "our" so you can't call your db that.
We have OurSQL at home, it's called MonoDB
"Mongodb is web scale"
That's noSQL
MariaDB is already cooler, obviously.
Very weird though that both it and MySQL are owned by private equity.
