The main difference that I see is Postgres' advanced support for things like Views, Stored Procedures, Transactions and other more advanced database functions. This is not to say that MySQL does not support these, however Postgres' advanced features are tuned to be highly performative.
Also, Postgres supports more concurrent users than MySQL.
That all being said, if you web application is a relatively simple, mostly read-only, and doesn't require large number of concurrent connections, MySQL is probably the better way to go, as it is performatively optimized for reading, and is simpler to install, maintain, and has better third-party tool suppport.
