For that price you can get a $10 dedicated server with similar specs. Installing and configuring Postgres isn't a big deal. There are several helpful guides available. For small projects the config isn't important at all. For everything else it is just editing a few lines in a text file.

I'm not sure where the impression that this is some arcane art comes from. For a typical Debian system it is just an apt-get. Yes, the default config has tiny limits for work_mem. Just edit the .conf

Part of this might be that AWS or whichever other proprietary environment has captured developer knowledge at this point. Instead of sane INSTALL files, projects tell users to use a prepacked Docker image.
