I like the idea, but the execution seems rather bad. If I try to connect to my Postgres server, it can't find a single table in any database, even though I know there are tables and I know that other clients can fetch them. It also seems to say "undefined rows affected" on all SELECTs.

Can confirm (macOS).

I'm not sure if I like the idea. What does it offer that DBeaver doesn't? DBeaver's auto-complete is a bit eager, and it looks like the Java application that it is, but it works, and the features Beekeeper touts are provided by DBeaver with the same ease. But DBeaver does seem to offer a lot more.

DBeaver looks and feels like something that was cobbled together over the past 15 years. I just cannot make myself use it without constantly feeling icky.

Or TablePlus.

TablePlus is a paid, proprietary software. And not only that, it's licensed per device, not per user, one year at a time. So if you work on two computers, that's $120 per year.

I was responding to the parent about feature comparison.
