I've actually been investigating Postgres cluster configurations the past 2 weeks at work (though we're considering CloudNativePG+Kubernetes on 3 nodes spanning two physical locations).
One thing I might recommend is to investigate adding a proxy like PgBouncer in front of the databases. This will manage request differences where write-queries must go to the primary, but read-queries may go to any of the replicas as well.
It should also better handle the recycling of short-lived and orphaned connections, which may become more of a concern on your stage 3, and especially on some stage 4.
Regarding access tokens, there's a third party credential helper for Linux that uses OAuth. I recently found it and started using it a month ago. Works pretty much the same as Git + Windows Credential Manager. In case you are running headless, there is a device mode flag that will allow you to login with the GitHub app on your phone.

(And if you layer a timed cache helper before the OAuth helper... well you shouldn't have to reauthenticate every time!)
Otherwise, the Git manual lists some other credential helpers that interface with some password managers.
My city has fully integrated the Transit app into our bus system, so you can also buy and scan your tickets within the app, including monthly passes and 10-use "punch cards". Just activate the QR code as you're boarding. It's awesome.
I personally use rdfind as it has an option to replace duplicates with hardlinks instead of deleting them outright (if on the same filesystem). This is useful if you do still need a file to exist at multiple paths.
I then use Czkawka for everything else, especially for similar, non-duplicate files.
During a high school English class, we had a section on fairytales and their origins in old European folklore (think stories that inspired The Witcher, the gorier version of Cinderella, etc.)
One of the assignments was to write our own short fairytales, but apparently I was the only person that got a memo that these should have a darker style and tone as well... I don't remember the whole of what I wrote, only that it involved trying to kill a witch, if you failed you died, and the winning method was using a pencil (this was 3-4 years before John Wick).
After I read it to the entire class... well if there wasn't a whispered "WTF" to break the silence, there should've been.
I think I got a B minus.
