"You can find information about all of the features and changes found in
PostgreSQL 17"

Sounds repetitive; maybe:

"Information about all of the features and changes in PostgreSQL 17 can
be found in the [release notes]"

"more explicitly SIMD instructions" I think ought to be "more explicit
SIMD instructions"

"PostgreSQL 17 includes a built-in collation provider that provides
similar semantics to the `C` collation provided by libc."

I think that needs to mention UTF-8 encoding somehow, and "provided by
libc" is not really true; maybe:

"PostgreSQL 17 includes a built-in collation provider that provides
similar sorting semantics to the `C` collation except with UTF-8
encoding rather than SQL_ASCII."
