For me the most annoying things are: - in mysql the text field has a max size (mysql does not really provide arbitrary length text fields) - each "alter table" must be done in its own transaction that means I was forced to break migrations in multiple transactions.
It seems everything in mysql has a small caveat. Things just always work in postgresql as one would expect.
