I would personally never build anything mission critical using NoSQL, sure it’s fast and easy to use, but it might render unreliable in some situations when it’s most important.
However 99% of stuff SWE use to build are nowhere close to that level of importance.
As long as you know your tool and requirements feel free to use whatever you want, even JSON file on hard drive.
Do you need availability or consistency? https://martin.kleppmann.com/2015/05/11/please-stop-calling-...
