When using SQL as datastore for your application. Do you prefer a collation that is

@serra Doesn’t make sense to have a preference for that. This decision should be made separately for each column.

@chloekek What would you choose as default value when you don't specify case sensitivity?

@serra The special “C” collation, as it’s the simplest one that just calls memcmp. If you need something more complex then a default won’t do well anyway. There are many parameters you can choose from, besides case-sensitivity, such as language and whether to recognize multi-digit numbers.
