    Pretty terrible behavior by Facebook. I hope that the community is able to overcome the name recognition problem and follow the founders to Trino.

    Dain, Martin, and team have very high standards and it shows in their work. I wish the Trino team the best of luck!

    Seems Facebook decided to screw with PrestoSQL by abusing trademark law and Linux Foundation is helping.

    Not unexpected of Facebook (they are 100 % rotten and evil company) byt I thought Linux Foundation was better than this.
