Our team has migrated from DBeaver to Beekeeper recently and it has been a pleasure.
My major ask would be that it saves my connection by default.

#12Does anyone know how this compares to DBeaver?
Smoother to use and simpler, but it's missing features when it comes to running long queries where you want to break it up into several so it does not timeout.

#13I use the free “community” edition daily: https://github.com/beekeeper-studio/beekeeper-studio/release...

Migrated to Pop OS and one of the first suggestions for a DB manager in the Pop Shop was Beekeeper. I tested it out since I'd only used DBeaver before. Upon finding out it didn't save my connection by default, I instantly went back to DBeaver.

#16It looks a lot like Tableplus [1] Who copied whom?

#17Been using this for a year or so as my daily basic DB client. Really like it for what it is and can definitely recommend it for quick and simple DB operations.
I put it in the same category as tableplus - its a nice simple db client when all you need to do is browse some data, edit a row or two, etc. The community edition of beekeeper, however, has less annoyances than tableplus's free version imo.
For more advanced use-cases, it doesn't come close to dbeaver or tools like that, but it also isn't designed to imo.
Looking forward to an (admittedly big and clunky) PR of mine to beekeeper potentially being merged that adds support for connecting to aws rds instances via iam (cli) :)

See also: DBeaver, pgadmin, MySQL workbench, Navicat, MS Access, ...
These graphical database clients mostly end up looking the same in the end.

Since you mentioned it, I was always curious if the team behind TablePlus were/are connected to the team behind Postico [1]. The UIs for both (at least before Postico 2) are almost identical.

Anyone care to say what the pros & cons vs JetBrain’s DataGrip are?
it's opensource https://github.com/beekeeper-studio/beekeeper-studio
DBeaver has the same open source 'community' version model.
Beekeeper seems like a less clunky, but also much less featureful alternative. I mean that in a good way really, I quite like the idea of 'slightly more than psql' (but not too much), as long as it's fast/lightweight.
