When you say "postgres user in the terminal", do you mean logging in
to the operating system?  If so, that has nothing to do with the
database login unless you choose to make it so by having an "ident"
entry in the pg_hba.conf file.

Once you get logged in with the postgres user, that would be the
CREATE DATABASE and CREATE USER statements:
