I don't use supabase, but am a big postgres fan:

Wrong. Version your functions and use something like liquibase to apply migrations.

View on HN

Way less friendly than writing code IMO

Far, far more performant though for filtering millions of rows

Developer friendly matters early on, performance and security friendly matters at scale

And handwrite xml? No thanks. Again, if I wanted to do any of this management myself, I wouldn't be using a PaaS.

You don't have to use the xml format if you don't want to. Not sure why you wouldn't want to, since the xsd enables autocompletion in your IDE which makes it the most practical format of all.

Anyway, YAML and SQL format are a thing

Or Bytebase if you want a more sophisticated GitLab like experience
