What I really liked about Firebird, and then Postgres made me feel right at home, was standards-compliance with SQL and great feature set. I find myself most-often-than-not guessing how something ought to work in Postgres, based on past experiences, and finding that it works exactly (mostly) like it 'should'. Plus, I found many new things that I loved and changed the way I think about stuff, like using Python for SP, JSON fields and RegEx in WHERE. And a special mention to the Async NOTIFY stuff which finally works like it 'should' in a DB (Firebird had something like that, but with no payload).
FWIW, numerous people made similar comments about Postgres at this month's AustinPUG meeting when someone mentioned they haven't used it yet. Basically, they said he'd love using it. :)
