That's good to know. I've been looking for an alternative to DBeaver.

Just curious, what's wrong with dbeaver?

  I'd like to know too, because I think it's really great

  It can be pretty awkward to work with, although I've not found anything comparable, free, and cross-platform. Sometimes the FK links in cells break. Other times views don't get invalidated when pressing refresh until a reboot. There are different refresh buttons all over the place for different contexts. Lots of minor quibbles despite almost weekly updates. It does have a gamut of features though - and it's free and cross-platform though, so it's one of those love-hate relationships for me.

  Mostly great, but I had an intermittent key remapping bug on the Mac not fixed for years. The default home/end document on Mac is not useful. Annoying enough to consider options.

  For me, the biggest problem is its startup time (it takes at least 30-60s on my work laptop). It also randomly crashes for me when viewing any postgis related result sets.

    You should ask your boss for a better laptop... No reason for it to take more than 5-10 seconds to open. Need more RAM?

  My biggest issue with it is how everytime I open it, it asks me to install a new version. Like, I am glad they're working on the software, but I'm getting fatigued from the inevitable popup

  If you like using psql, you might want to try out https://pxlapp.com/home https://pxlapp.com/home

Me too. I ended up going with DbGate (https://dbgate.org/ https://dbgate.org/). It's a little rough around the edges, but it has a lot of features.

  Dbgate looks really interesting, do you know if it supports debugging (especially in postgres)? I didn't see anything on their site, but maybe it is offered via a plugin or something?

I really like https://www.beekeeperstudio.io/ https://www.beekeeperstudio.io/ for my simple needs (view tables, run/format SQL, edit tables like spreadsheets)
