Ask HN: Tips on hosting your own Postgres instance

After all brouhaha around GDPR over the past month or so, I've decided to port my sideproject from Azure, Netlify and DigitalOcean to a local provider.

I've found one that checks all the boxes, except they don't offer any managed databases. Is it a fools errand to host my own Postgres database on a VPS? I've actually considered running everything off of (multliple instances of) SQLite so that I don't have to manage Postgres.
