Postgres > NoSQL for most apps, you want SQL queries + RLS, you want to escape Google's lock-in, you want a self-hosted option, you want lower costs at scale.
Escape MongoDB's licensing changes (SSPL), get true relational queries, schema enforcement, ACID transactions, lower hosting costs.
Escape Slack's 90-day message retention on free plan, get full message history, self-host for compliance, avoid per-user fees.
Escape Airtable's per-user pricing, hit row/record limits, want to self-host, need to connect to existing SQL databases.
