What is the best way to migrate our database to Railway?
It is currently hosted on a Rackspace server (CentOS) and is on version 9.6 of postgres.
I've seen the migration migrator but I'm a bit nervous about using a tool that I don't know what it's doing. Is it best just do it by hand - dumping the existing db and restoring it on Railway? Or is there a better way?

Hey, I would personally just migrate by hand since the entire process is super straightforward as you have mentioned, just dump your existing Postgres database and restore it to another, in this case the one hosted on Railway.
