I've been self hosting Postgresql for 12+ years at this point. Directly on bare metal then and now in a container with CapRover.

I have a cron sh script to backup to S3 (used to be ftp).

It's not "business grade" but it has also actually NEVER failed. Well once, but I think it was more the container or a swarm thing. I just destroyed and recreated it and it picked up the same volume fine.

The biggest pain point is upgrading as Postgresql can't upgrade the data without the previous version installed or something. It's VERY annoying.
