I can't wait to try this. Finally time to get some more stuff out of spreadsheets. DBeaver is really powerful (and we're lucky to have it); that said, it (at least the default skin on macOS) doesn't have the aesthetic that makes me want to use it for personal projects.

Really appreciate the design from the screenshots.

Is it a few hero sponsors away from notarization, by the way? :)

Interesting, looks like it's two completely separate implementations, one in Swift and one in Python.

Looks interesting ! I'm a fan of https://eggerapps.at/postico2/ personally but I'll check it out

Also stumbled across https://postgresgui.com/ a few days ago. Looks similar in scope, and open source as well. Though you need to build it yourself to not pay.

This looks great, definitely going to take it for a spin tomorrow.

I'm pretty happy at the moment editing in vim invoked from psql with \e - which has been my setup for way more than a decade now, but I do miss isql (Query Analyzer) from SQL Server 2000, which was just about perfect.

Are the Gnome features planned to be ported to macOS? Frozen columns and cancelable queries are pretty vital things!

Developers adopting mobile toolkits (libadwaita) for desktop apps are degrading the Linux experience

- less information density

- wasted space

- phone tier UX

- optimized for touch screens

- lacks depth

Lazy convergence that ignores how people actually use desktops

Website says "native" but it's an Electron app.
