Yes, postgres has sync and async replication with the ability to even choose a quorum (so that 2 of 3 replicas confirm).
Also has logical replication now, although I wouldnt recommend it because it doesn't support DDL changes yet. Overall it's a solid db choice, but there is still some work involved.
Otherwise I'd recommend SQL Server for a fantastic commercial database that runs cross-platform and has great tooling to make everything easier and some advanced features.
Even with MySQL, the replication is still asynchronous from binlog? Is it also the case with postgres?
