Depends on how many years of support of TablePlus you want to pay for.

You're right, this probably wasn't worth it on a personal level.

But on a collective level, maybe.

Don't hide it, run with it

My understanding of native is also that it's essentially natively compiled to the platform, not that it's necessarily using platform native UI.

The goal here with this project is to be platform agnostic. TablePlus due to being developed for macOS is much worse on other platforms than on macOS where it shines.

I wanted to bring the same experience but make it platform agnostic.

Actually I use macOS primarily but I use Linux for my VPSs and home server of course. I should probably test it on there.

TablePlus is notoriously not that great on Windows due to not being as platform agnostic.

I wanted to make this as platform agnostic as possible while being ultra performant. TablePlus is awesome on macOS, not so awesome on other platforms. Let's bridge that gap and make it open source and free.

You're right, Linux is great and I use it for all my server hosting needs.

I built (vibe coded with direction) a free, open source alternative to TablePlus.

The goal is high performance and easy to use just like TablePlus but without that nagging window asking you to pay to have more than 2 active tabs.

It also runs in the browser for a fun demo since it can be compiled to WASM.

Feedback is super welcome and I'm continuing to iterate upon it and am already using it as my daily driver and ironing out the kinks. It works well enough™ already but expect a few janky things here and there.

Yeah but to be fair, that's what he's actually supposed to be doing.

Yeah, I don't know about you but I've got all my life savings in the safe haven that is Tesla stock.

You sound like one of the most toxic people on the face of the planet. I just thought someone should tell you that in-case you're unaware of how horrific you are.

Fixed that and edited it up a bit.
