VARCHAR vs TEXT

[dawidmachon]

Hi,
I saw on supabase docs you use VARCHAR for postgres tables.

On PostgreSQL manual

There is no performance difference among these three types, apart from increased storage space when using the blank-padded type, and a few extra CPU cycles to check the length when storing into a length-constrained column. While character(n) has performance advantages in some other database systems, there is no such advantage in PostgreSQL; in fact character(n) is usually the slowest of the three because of its additional storage costs. In most situations text or character varying should be used instead.
I usually use text

What you think?

I don't think it matters a lot if it's TEXT or VARCHAR, but if we were to pick one, I guess go with the one more commonly used.
