Thanks. I just heard about this place today from my other home online Spiceworks. Does this place have a mango level?
Not really, just a leaderboard.

Hey guys. I'm Jeremy from Malta. I'm the guy behind https://uploadr.eu, which has been mentioned around here a few times. I'm also working an internship with @Breffni-Potter from Dara IT.

Welcome @Patrick
This is more a place for discussions, while SW is more like a Q&A platform (aka "shoot an answer as fast as you can to grab a best answer"). This isn't bad at all, just different.
About the "leaderboard", well, you need to know that there are rumors about @scottalanmiller. Some people say he has four additional arms and can type at least twice as fast as a senior dev. On top, he just needs half an hour of sleep per day. No chance to get the first place I'm afraid.

No mango levels A bunch of things are designed to be specifically different from SW for two reasons... one where possible we wanted to learn from them and improve rather than copying their decisions that didn't make sense (NoSQL database for example) while also not wanting to be a copy cat any more than necessary. The idea isn't to be "another" SW, but to have our own value, direction and purpose. Is there overlap? Heck yeah, can't be avoided. But we certainly aren't trying to copy them just to do so, only where it really makes sense. They figured a lot of things out that are worth copying, of course.
You'll notice we don't really have categories either, we have tags.
Funny... nearly ten years on SW things that I told them to do... use NoSQL for speed, use tags not groups, don't have points and levels. LOL I just realized that ML is the SW that I told them to make long ago Maybe we didn't learn as much from them as just planned this better from the beginning.

The database backend.

More like a style of databases... Not your typical MySQL or MSSQL... This is something different.

Also useful for this shirt I'm wearing. Thanks Cassandra conference
I like Cassandra a lot, but we use MongoDB. Which I like a lot, too.

@scottalanmiller I meant for spiceworks.

We used Cassandra a ton at Change. Very popular there.
