Isn't Citus sort of the same?

Yes but I feel Vitess is much more widely used than Citus. MySQL community, last time I check has formed a more mature ecosystem and conscious on HA and Clustering.

Postgres still feels more like throwing you a bunch of options and you are on your own.

It is not that a solution being more widely used means it is good, you are just less likely running into edge cases with no help at all.

Looking at Vitess' roadmap[1] it's in their medium term roadmap but I'm not aware of any other project that currently support Postgres.

This is still in our plans. We're likely to launch by end of year.
