Jsonb in postgres is fine, I've been using it for years. Much better than letting mongodb anywhere near the stack.

PostgreSQL can even run WebAssembly (with an extension)

Postgres handles NoSQL better than many dedicated NoSQL database management systems. I kept telling another team to at least evaluate it for that purpose - but they knew better and now they are stuck with managing the MongoDB stack because they are the only ones that use it. Postgres is able to do everything they use out of the box. It just doesn't sound as fancy and hip.
