I also self host on a 4$ box. Quite impressive how much performance you get for that kind of money.

Setting up and managing Postgres is a pain tho. Would be nice to have a simpler way of getting this all right.

My great hope is either fly.io or cloudflare providing managed postgres behind their super lightweight services and networking.

That's what docker is for, making setup simpler.

Getting binaries onto a box is not the hard part of administering a RDBMS
