I mean I love postgres like the next guy. And I like simple solutions as long as they work. I just wonder if this is truly simpler than using a redis or rabbitmq queue if you need Queues. If you're already using a cloud provider sqs is quite trivial as well.
I guess if you already have postgres and don't want to use the cloud provider's solution. You can use this to avoid hosting another piece of infra.
db-based gives you the ability to query against your queues, if you use case needs it. Other options tend to dispose the state once the job is finished.
