MariaDB installs itself in a way that makes it look as though it is
MySQL. So the command that restarts MySQL also works for MariaDB as
it sets up an alias to make that command work. To see if you are
running MariaDB instead of MySQL, just type this command:
mysql --version
If you are running MariaDB, you should see something like this:
mysql Ver 15.1 Distrib 10.3.22-MariaDB, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64)
using readline 5.2
If it is real MySQL, there will be no mention of "MariaDB" in the
output.
