Hi!

I assume everyone on this mailing list has a GitHub account. Could you
please +1 these PRs that add a mention of MariaDB in the documentation
of various projects that currently only mention MySQL?

Open each link below and press the thumbs up icon in the lower left
corner of the PR description:

https://github.com/bookshelf/bookshelf/pull/2129
https://github.com/ponyorm/pony/pull/708
https://github.com/metabase/metabase/issues/40325
https://github.com/SeaQL/seaql.github.io/pull/116

I am asking this because there are a lot of database tools and
libraries out there that work with both MySQL and MariaDB, but they
only mention MySQL, which is a pity, because the users of those tools
might actually switch from MariaDB to MySQL simply out of
confusion/fear that the tool supports only MySQL, which is almost
never true.

One of those rare cases is Javascript/Node.js Drizzle ORM which needs
changes to support MariaDB. There is already a PR for that, you could
+1 it as well:
https://github.com/drizzle-team/drizzle-orm/pull/1692

The Rust Diesel ORM has a similar situation going on:
https://github.com/diesel-rs/diesel/issues/1882
https://github.com/diesel-rs/diesel/pull/3964



However most projects have absolutely no MySQL-specific things and
work with MariaDB, and just needed the docs updated, like was done in
these cases:


https://github.com/mysql-net/MySqlConnector/pull/1460
https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/51330
https://github.com/prisma/docs/pull/5706
https://github.com/gregstoll/gallery2/pull/168
https://github.com/coleifer/peewee/pull/2858
