With Postgres 18 having just been released, when can we expect availability on DigitalOcean? Thanks!

Hey!

I don’t think that there is an official ETA on this. But as far as I can see, Postgres 17 was released in late September, and DigitalOcean started offering it 2-3 months later on: https://docs.digitalocean.com/release-notes/#january-2025

Hopefully, this will be quicker this time with Postgres 18!
