I'm personally a big fan of TablePlus: https://tableplus.io

I looked into Table Plus when I found that Sequel Pro crashes more than NASCAR on a Sunday. But it’s pricing model doesn’t work for the way I work. I’m just one person, but use multiple computers simultaneously, making per-computer licensing prohibitive. Obviously phpMyAdmin is a tire fire. I’m still looking for a good macOS-native client similar to Sequel Pro. Bonus points if it has a usable iPad version.

SetApp might be good for you. Table Plus is in there and I'm sure you can have up to 3 machines in the default subscription

It hasn't been updated in a very long time. Constant crashes on Mojave. I have transitioned away to TablePlus and DataGrip. Too bad because it was a very good tool for quick edits.

I had a lot of trouble with Mojave and the crashing you are reporting is annoying. I’ve been using their test builds the past couple months with zero problems though. https://sequelpro.com/test-builds

+1 - use the test builds, they work and fixed all my problems.

As for crashing, just use the test builds: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18937589

Sequel Pro is the single app that makes me come back to OSX every now and then to work with my databases. This app for Linux would be so great. The official Oracle MySQL application for Linux is so unstable, it's mostly unusable for large databases. Never experienced such problems with Sequel.

I use it on multiple computers - jsut not at the same time.

"If you want to use TablePlus on multiple devices you need to add more seats to your license. The number of seats is the number of devices you can log in to at the same time" https://tableplus.io/order/extend-seats

So I took that to mean that I can have it on multiple machines, I just can't use them at the same time - which is fine, I can use my laptop or desktop depending on where I am.

Sequel Pro is one of the few reasons why I used to be really, really envious about Mac users, as a Linux user (now I don't work with MySQL anymore). I've never seen any SQL GUI even come close.

I put up with mySQL workbench, its java based, clunky and unstable but very well featured.

I loved Sequel Pro and was disappointed when I switched companies and couldn't use it with Postgres. Plug: it's one of the reasons why I built PopSQL ( https://popsql.io )

sequel Pro is better then pgadmin for me, but pgadmin is very usable

Sequel Pro doesn't support PG though... Unless I have missed something? If you can tell me how to use it with PG I will be very happy :P
