This is kinda absolute BS at this point, though.

Mongo has acid transactions, and has for years now. Although this is only within the same database, there are plenty of dbms (including rdbms) that don't support cross-database transactions.

Mongo also, since time immemorial, has had "write concern" to ensure that it's written to disk (to the journal) before the transaction is completed.

This post is very timely because I was just introducing some new people to Mongo earlier this week and led off with "Now you might still hear people say 'mongo is trash, it's not even ACID compliant!' but those people are dumb... it's had that for years and years and is just another DBMS at this point (but not relational)"

... the last part also answers the other reply to this post. Yes.

So is it just another database software at this point, then?

With a JS-based query language, yeah
