DataGrip is $20/month, for all databases, and includes additional ones this product doesn't support. Nor does it have limits like the number of tabs you can have open. And it's cross platform today.
One-time fee okay. 40$ a month? Hell no.

What is the open source alternative?
There's DBeaver Community
SQL Developer caused me significant file system grief by creating recursive directory hard links in the settings folder (on Windows), so it's banned forever from my systems.

That said, it really is quite useful and usually the best tool to get db stuff done quickly. It's my go to dbadmin app.

What Java apps became popular, other than Minecraft? The only things that got used were tools from companies like Cisco and IBM which everyone detested using. People still complain about Java.
How about JetBrains’s entire suite of IDEs? They are Java (well, now probably mostly Kotlin, but still JVM) based and cross-platform and as a user of those and previously Vi/Emacs for three decades I can say totally belong in my toolkit.
Every time I have to wait a few seconds after clicking on something trivial, like the File top-level menu, I remind myself of how much my Intel i7 can do in 1 second, and my disdain for Java and Electron apps only increases.
I don't know if Windows or Mac OS have a battery usage chart by app, like Android does, with warnings for badly written software. If they don't, they should add it. Maybe that would clue more people in.

This is Hacker News so you will get lots of people chiming in to remind you they won’t use your project because it’s Electron. The people like me usually don’t say anything but I know how disheartening it can be to only receive negativity so I’m going to chime in. I’m currently running Slack and Discord and am happy with both desktop applications. I would absolute consider using any future electron based applications…
I think VS Code is the gold standard for Electron. Slack, not so much. On my work laptop, it uses 800mb over 5 processes, and is easily 5x slower to paste a screenshot into than Teams.
is "Show HN:" a paid way for companies to advertise on hacker news? If not, awesome, otherwise, I feel a bit naive in thinking HN was a more pure approach to content and would be very disappointed.
I share your disappointment and would like to know how the admins see this.

I wish VS Code wasn’t Electron. It’s noticeably laggier that native editors, and its performance under load is a lot worse.
