Yes, I prefer to have no direct access to the database from the client, just go through my API, and my API handles ACLs and do the SQL calls

Got it. Sounds like you're in the market for a SQL database. In your setup, is there anything extra you'd want? I guess I'm merely wondering what FireBase and Co could even provide to you?

Firebase provides the auth, and the fact that it's easy to take a look at the database, but indeed I'd rather use Postgres

Makes sense. If it's mostly auth you're after, there's a bunch of dedicated products: https://github.com/zitadel/zitadel, https://github.com/teamhanko/hanko, https://github.com/casdoor/casdoor, https://github.com/authelia/authelia (At least the first is Postgres compatible)
