Not everyone here chose Firebird for their project because they thought it was the world's best database. Probably rather more people had no choice at all, being assigned to a project that was already using Firebird. And the same will apply to any user community, of course. -- Tim Ward

We chose Firebird ourselves, and love Firebird. We use Windows though, not Linux, but we do have a few sites that have chosen to use a Linux server. Haven't voted on the poll, as we really have no Linux related question to ask, so don't qualify to vote on that poll. Have added a testimonial

Hello Carlos, This LinuxQuestions poll is even worse in such aspect, since not everyone uses FB on Linux, and even when they use, most people don't wanna waste 5 minutes registering to a site they will not use, just to be able to vote por FB. I would say that in the past, Firebird users
