MODERATORS
While you raise valid points I don't really have a preference actually. I self host many services that all depend on a postgres db and it would be overkill to create an extra database just for seafile it's also really easy to manage with a nice interface like pgadmin and i found it overall reliable and it can easily scale up and down according to my needs .
However the main reason i didn't chose MySQL in the first place is simply because i don't trust oracle for keeping MySQL open-source (i'm actually surprised it stayed open source for so long) postgres has been independent for decades so i know they're not gonna give me up
