    Realtime uses logical replication, and from your link it looks like it should work with Timescale (although not recommended):

    > Using logical replication with TimescaleDB is not recommended, as it requires schema synchronization between the primary and replica nodes and replicating partition root tables, which are not currently supported.

    As long as logical replication is supported, this won't be an issue for Realtime because the purpose is to receive data changes (which come in a JSON format) and the end-user doesn't need to persist schema modifications.

    If you send me some error logs, I can take a look or forward to one of the team.

    > support Postgres streaming replication

    This is the first time I've heard it requested - I don't think it's something we'd do unless there was a good reason and strong demand. If we were to do any work in this direction we'd prefer to try contribute DDL streaming to PostgreSQL's logical streaming. We've been thinking about this for a while (Michel has built metagration - https://github.com/michelp/metagration which has prompted a few ideas for core patches)

    Now we can replicate the same behavior in Elixir and Postgrex within IEx (Elixir's interactive shell).

    But I found a problem when the data type is not supported by postgrex. In this case, you can either have to write a custom postgrex extension like the example here. In postgrex GitHub repo, there are many examples for common data types, but XML is missing there.

    It sounds like Supabase is pulling out the WAL listening bits into its own library?
