I love the idea of PG for everything, but every time I suggest it I get the same answer "When you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail" which makes sense to me, but not sure how to give a good answer to that phrase :(
I mean, that's just a truism - it's not really engineering advice. Maybe Postgres is just a hammer, but when you're building a house there's a lot of nails.
If you've got to store 5 GB videos, maybe reach for object store instead of postgres. But for most uses postgres is a solid choice.
