@Gargron ahh, lame. and kinda surprising, postgres has a better reputation than that. Though to be fair I dont use postgres as a developer as much as I used to in a way where I need to maintain my own instance. I've been using amazon AWS's postgres for a while now in most professional settings and that is always seemless somehow on upgrades.
@freemo Mind that Postgres is like 3 major versions ahead of me. Latest is 13, I believe. More recent versions have logical replication which do not need both ends to be on the same version. I'm just stuck in the past.
