whats weird is postgres and redis are named the same but it won't let me name my service?

having to have different service names between envs would be a huge pain in the arse

Hello,

You would want to use the environment syncing feature instead of creating services manually, like you are doing now.

https://docs.railway.com/guides/environments#sync-environments

interesting.... Does everything have to be synced? What if I wanted my production environment only to use a postgres database hosted elsewhere? Like do env vars get synced as well?

You do not need to sync everything; you can discard any changes you don't want to sync over.
