I ran brew update and now postgres is mad at me cuz certain projects need a specific version for it to work. How do I change my postgres version?
You may want to use docker or (on MacOS) Postgres.app instead of homebrew.
First check what version of postgres you're own by running.
postgres --version
If it's not what you expect follow enter the following commands
brew uninstall postgresql
If you have dependancies that won't let ya uninstall.
brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies postgresql brew install postgresql@ brew services start postgresql@ brew link postgresql@ --force
