Ah, good to know.
I did know there were two sides of it (we explored MariaDB Enterprise at work, but unfortunately it didn't pan out).
Any more, I just assume one company buying any other always results in a worse experience post-sale.
MariaDB tried to go public a while back and their stock price tanked immediately and never recovered. If they hadn't gotten acquired I imagine they'd have gone out of business.
