I was checking pg_roles.acl_default to see if my role-level ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES had been effective. But I see the same content both before and after the ALTEr.
You mention that this needs to be done in each database. Is there a database-level version of pg_roles.acl_default that I should be checking instead?
Thanks,

You'll also need to repeat the ALTERs in each database of your
installation.
