I have a personal project and I used a tiny Azure 'dev/test' postgres database like OP mentioned and it went down for a day with no explanation. Restoring from back ups did not work. Now Auzre have a new DB service in preview called Horizon which I'd hope is more reliable. Before that I used stackgres on kubernetes which was awful. I hear the cloud native pg operator is okay though? Another problem I had was Bitnami yanking some helm charts and images I had used for a Redis cluster.

I'm now thinking something like Supabase or Convex may be the way to go for personal projects. Any experiences?
