 From here:

#1 IN POSTGRES
THE MOST ADMIRED, DESIRED, & USED DATABASE.

is not helpful.

Though I would say the bigger issue is here:

https://www.postgresql.org/download/

Where you have

Packages and Installers

and then further down

3rd party distributions

It tends to imply that the 'Packages and Installers' are not third 
party, when they are to some degree or another.
