  I have tried Azure Data Studio, before I have decided to create DbGate as linux tool. From my point of view, ADS uses technology from VS Code heavily, which is great in VS Code, but not in database access tool. About features, what I miss in ADS most are data browsing (filtering, sorting, master-details) features, it is neccessary to write queries manually. I think I am quite good in writing SQL queries, but it is annoying and slow to write very similar queries again and again. What you mean exactly with lack of MS telemetry?

      Just to clarify in case OP wasn’t aware, HackerNews readers are often privacy conscious folk, and it’s quite well known that Microsoft (like Google and Facebook) embed a lot of user activity monitoring into their applications. The audience is happy you are not doing this.

        As you said, DbGate has no activity tracking or monitoring. Tracking is only on site dbgate.org. I will never add any tracking to dbgate app. I believe that it doesn't have great sense in open-source project.
