There's so, so much missing context from almost every "you should use this tech" post. Software engineering is such an incredibly broad profession. People working on firmware for embedded medical devices and people making line of business software for an insurance company have wildly different choke points on productivity and utility. Budgets vary too. Maybe scaling SQLite can be done for low hosting costs if you just invest 200 hours of labor, but for most orgs, the 200 hours of labor are way more expensive than the hosting costs, so just pay for Postgres on AWS and don't worry about it.
