I've switched entirely to Dbeaver for postgres management/exploration and writing SQL. https://dbeaver.io/ https://dbeaver.io/ Really well-built tool.

  It may be well-built, but my recent experience with DBeaver was a database server that went down due to aggressive background column option fetching on a table with some 4 * 10^9 entries, soaking up all available IO. Partly the fault of the dba using the tool of course, but dbeaver has these 'small' features that suddenly become very costly to use when administrating production datasets.
