I find Supabase immensely helpful to minimize overhead in the beginning, but would love to better understand where it starts breaking and how hard an eventual migration would be.

The problems we've seen or heard about with Supabase are:
* Cost (in either magnitude or variability). Either from usage, or having to go onto their Enterprise-tier pricing for one reason or another * The usual intractable cloud-oddities – dropped connections, performance speed-bumps * Increased network latency (just the way it goes when data has to cross a network fabric. Its fast, but not as fast as your own private network) * Scaling events tend not to be as smooth as one would hope
None of these are unique to Supabase though, they can simply all arise naturally from building infrastructure on a cloud platform.
Regarding self-hosted Supabase - we're certainly open to deploying this for our clients, we've been experimenting with it internally. Happy to chat with you or anyone who's interested. Email is adam@ company domain.
