Sequel Pro is the one I keep comparing all Postgres clients to.

Beekeper is nice but lacks some of the GUI Tools, there's no point in having a nice GUI but not any good amount of functionality.

At times I see folks new to Postgres using 2 or 3 different GUIs to do different things.

sequel pro (which afaik has not been updated since 1928?) could be compared with postico2 as far as native look and feel go - https://eggerapps.at/postico2/

never realized sequel pro was open source: https://github.com/sequelpro/sequelpro

Sequel Pro have been abandoned and lacks support for some newer version of databases, and there is a maintained fork here: https://github.com/Sequel-Ace/Sequel-Ace

This is great to see. I hope this kind of client can be connected to Postgres one day.

Yup, it’s crazy something unmaintained is still such a noticeably better experience than any of the Postgres clients I have seen.

The note about sequel ace below is worth noting too for anyone wanting to try it out.
