PostgreSQL is the only top-four database in the DB-Engines rankings gaining popularity points, both this month and over the past year. It trails SQL Server by just 3.84 points and could overtake it as soon as December 2026 or January 2027. Closing the gap with MySQL (133.54 points) and Oracle (406.46 points) would take until roughly mid-2028 and early 2029 at current trends. PostgreSQL 19 is also a month late and lost several headline features during beta, including SQL/PGQ property graph queries, which Robert Haas attributes partly to AI tools surfacing more bugs to fix. The author argues popularity isn't the same as dominance, since PostgreSQL still lacks built-in high availability and easy major-version upgrades compared to commercial rivals.

Libghostty, the C library for terminal emulation extracted from Ghostty, has reached version 1.0 with a stable, semantically versioned ABI. JetBrains IDEs now use it, reaching over 12.5 million active users, and Neovim has an approved pull request to replace libvterm with it. Vercel's Turborepo, devenv and OrbStack already embed it, and community bindings exist for many languages. The library is MIT licensed, needs only libc by default, can be built freestanding, and supports Linux, macOS, iOS, Windows, Android, FreeBSD and WebAssembly. A test ran 10,000 active terminals on a 4-core, 8GB Linux server.
