Honestly not my experience, if you have postgresql running locally on your laptop, I find upgrading versions is a pain, even with the automated scripts provided and I often run in socket issues: psql is already connected, not able to connect to this or that socket,...

So yeah, installing is easy and on a clean install it runs fine but it's not unusual to get pretty annoying issues over time in my experience.

But presumably none of those issues is fixed by using WASM in a browser.

They aren't but they probably won't appear user-side, the companies will most likely have to deal with their servers, fix those issues and the users can enjoy not thinking about that when they're trying PostgreSQL online.
