    Speaking of DBeaver - does anyone have any good themes that they might share? I really like the interface but the stock look is lacking.

    To use your 4x money argument - Why couldn't you care at least about 2x money? Or even 1x money? For the sake of being friends with your "friends"? Friendship isn't an all or nothi…
