I'm using Supabase as my database, with RLS turned on. I query the DB from a Node backend using the postgres.js client (it could be any other JS client really). As such I'm connecting direct with the default postgres user and I issue raw SQL queries.
Yes that's exactly what I'm reading here and there. It seems to be the approach that Supabase is taking itself when receiving queries via their API gateway, powered by PostgREST. I had a look at the source code for the latter and it's basically converting the claims in the received JWT into as many local set_config() calls (basically a wrapper function around SET LOCAL). See this related discussion.
