I agree but with a caveat that it depends entirely on what your queue represents. If it's part of your data model then keep it with the other data. If it's separate then keep it separate.

Using Postgres gives you transactions and consistency if you have to restore from a backup. Most of the time this doesn't matter (and is a liability) and you can just use some external queue system but sometimes it does matter.
