I love Supabase for all their features, but something I think is overlooked is they’re the simplest way to get a free postgres DB up and running for demos/PoCs/side projects. You don’t _need_ to use their fancy features or API clients, you can just spin up a DB without messing with a VM or temporary IP (looking at you, Oracle)

Agreed, this is a great feature. (Plus - most of their fancy features are just wrappers / better UI / more visibility into postgres!) You can either roll your own PG + API + other goodies, or you can spend $20+ / month on AWS, or use Supabase for free. They did a cool market segmentation - ratchet their pricing down one level. What AWS charges $25 for, Supabase is free. Where AWS is around $100, supabase is $25. Etc.
