The issue with this general rule of thumb is that we can swap Postgres for many others, including non-relational, and it works.

Thanks for your input, GPT-5.

The "everything can be done in Postgres" crowd is crazy. It is like a religion at this point.

Time to scan for the current opensource copmmunity projects to migrate. Any recommendations are most welcome.

They are probably adding more trinkets to their shop, so you can buy them.

It started well, though. It was an analytics tool with a developer-oriented mind; it was refreshing compared to the competition. But all good things do seem to come to an end, especially when it is a company. They went full weirdos in the last 2 years. AI just made everything worse.

Back to scanning open source projects, I guess.

PostHog was wonderful as an analytics solution, with its developer-first approach, good tools, and nice pricing.

At this point, I lost count of how many times in the last two decades I fell for it, although I'm more used to it now. Companies that grow into success and change. With the AI frenzy, PostHog also started going all-in, and not only that, but they seem to be exploring no-coding tools and whatnot. Supabase is another one that was cool, but now it is in the AI abyss.

Indeed, at this point, I'm the constant. Maybe I'm the problem here, and perhaps I should learn to accept the new AI overlords, give up and go full AI.
