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

I like TablePlus, but at $59/yr a license is ridiculous. Luckily the feature set isn't that much greater with a license, just minor annoyance on tabs which I've developed a habit of closing a tab as soon as I don't need it.

Projects like these should be celebrated through donations and this project makes it easy. When’s the last time you’ve seen freeware developer tool for macOS that’s not from a corporation with money to spare? I personally can’t think of anything beyond iTerm (utility), Homebrew (utility), ...aaand that's where my list ends.

macvim and macports come to mind. But I guess the "developer tools" space is pretty restricted anyway, most of it is editors and command line stuff (compilers, interpreters etc) which is often free in this era.

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 )

Would it be possible to have versioned downloads of this? I like pinning package versions so latest download doesn't cut it since it breaks the hashes.

I share the feeling. I'd just like to add IINA [1] to the list, it's an excellent video player and I use it daily.

This is a perpetual (lifetime) license not yearly. You only need to pay if you want to upgrade. The price is not $59/year, the price is $29 to extend one year free of updates. I think without the tab limitation, you can be happier, more productive and earn more than $29/year.
