Our Postgres is not an RDS replacement. Lots of devs use RDS with Fly. In fact, Postgres on Fly is just a normal Fly app that you can run yourself: https://github.com/fly-apps/postgres-ha

Ultimately, we think devs are better off if managed database services come from companies who specialize in those DBs. First party managed DBs trend towards mediocre, all the interesting Postgres features come from Heroku/Crunchy/Timescale/Supabase.

So we're "saving" managed Postgres for one of those folks. For the most part, they're more interested in giving AWS money because very large potential customers do. At some point, though, we'll be big enough to be attractive to DB companies.
