Good read! > Postgres' support for extensions and plugins is impressive. One of the original design goals of Postgres from the 1980s was to be extensible. The intention was to easily support new access methods and new data types and operations on those data types (i.e., object-relational). Since 2006, Postgres' "hook" API. Our research shows that Postgres has the most expansive and diverse extension ecosystem compared to every other DBMS. Greenhorn developers don't even know that there are non-Postgres databases which have extensions too - such is the gap! I wouldn't be surprised if Postgres had as many as all others combined.
