Dawid,

The Rails postgres adapter works great.  In fact, by and large you  
don't need to care about which DBMS you are running on because  
ActiveRecord is a good abstraction layer (the code for each database  
adapter is not that huge).  Rails users seem to have less of a MySQL  
bias than PHP users.  Arguably that's because Ruby and Rails share  
more of the design philosophy of Postgres, whereas PHP's design  
rigour seems to be inspired by MySQL.

If you are interested in Rails-based blogging engines, check out  
Mephisto ( http://www.mephistoblog.com/ ), which seems to be the best.
