Ruby on Rails

They make Navicat for MySQL too. I love it, couldn't do without it.

That being said, if you really can't tell the difference between PGSQL
and MySQL then you're probably better off with MySQL :)

Most developers make the switch to PG because they realize they need
more advanced DBA features that MySQL doesn't offer. If you're not
missing these features, why bother?

My $0.02.

*Cue PG fan trashing MySQL based on technical merits here*
