Awesome! Seems like this would be a lot easier to work with and perhaps more performant than Skye's pg-queue? Queue workload is a lot like OLTP, which IMO, makes Postgres great for it (but does require some extra tuning).

Unlike https://github.com/tembo-io/pgmq a project we've been working on at Tembo, many queue projects still require you to run and manage a process external to the database, like a background worker. Or they ship as a client library and live in your application, which will limit the languages you can chose to work with. PGMQ is a pure SQL API, so any language that can connect to Postgres can use it.
