Postgres jsonb ‘NOT contains’ operator

Two way, you can test any json(b) value

• the ->> operator extract value as text. But this operation slow, if you will use the value only test
• the @> operator test any json(b) contain any json(b). This is a quick but you are not tested NOT option.

Simply and quick way:

NOT (attribute @> '{"City":"Mesa"}'::jsonb)

I’ve change attribute->>'City' <> 'Mesa' to NOT (attribute @> '{"City":"Mesa"}'::jsonb) and my ~2.000.000 rows query result time changed 45secs to 25secs.
