What's your favorite DB editor software? (programming.dev)

Was just wondering what's popular nowadays, maybe I find something new and better - what kind of tools are you using to access and manage databases?

I'm personally using Dbeaver a lot but honestly it feels increasingly more buggy and unreliable as time passes, every installation and update has had (unique) issues so far and there's little support. However the ease of use and some powerful, convenient, utilities in it make it preferable to others.

DBeaver is multi-platform and multi-db, which is why i use it, haven't had any major issues with it but don't use it for overcomplicated stuff either, just running queries. Does rely on java, though...

Second this. I could use it in place of DataGrip if the company doesn't buy it for me.

Beaver is great. Once you learn it you can pretty much use it on any server.
