I love postgres for most things, but these days (Especially while my product is in early development, embedded, or just not internet-facing) sqlite is amazingly workable.

Killer postgres features however: Row-level security (Fantastic when you're using something like postgrest for rapid backend development [1]), and its built in fulltext search engine is 'good enough' for use cases like when you have an enormous users table and need to index something simple enough, like email addresses for quick login.
