When did Postgres become cool?
As with anything truly cool, it was cool long before most people noticed. I have been using Postgres on and off since ~7.2 and it has always been amazing. Being known as cool takes time.

Coolness is not evenly distributed :-) Even banks now have Postgres, it doesn't hurt that Oracle is such a nightmare to deal with..

Ha yeah we used to have to sneak in Postgres apps back in day. Some banks were indeed cooler than others.

It surely was the "I'm so cool you don't even know I'm cool" kind of cool.
