I have taken to using DBeaver. The overall experience is really nice.
I don't like that you have to toggle your "Active database" rather than just opening a new window with a new connection to a different database. If that annoys me much more then I plan to try SquirrelSQL and then retry Postage.
I never understood the hate that pgAdmin3 received, I liked it a lot. V4 though is a mess.
I use it to organize my scripts which I need regularly. I can also put them on a network/shared drive so that others can access it.
I don't know if pgAdmin allows it, but in DBeaver, I can switch between Grid and Text view to copy paste data into email in a nicely tabulated format, besides of course, being able to export a result set out into CSV etc.
I'm one of those who disliked pgAdmin3, at least on Mac. It crashed reliably if the database didn't disconnect cleanly and you tried to continue using the program. It crashed randomly when using SSH tunneling. It crashed randomly when resuming from sleep. It crashed reliably when you clicked on objects that no longer exist (ie something outside of pgAdmin deleted a table, then you click on that table in pgAdmin). The window would be lost in the nether if I moved it to a secondary monitor and then unplugged said monitor. The query editor was pretty mediocre. That's just the ones I can remember.
Yeah, I liked pgadmin3 but don't like pgadmin4. I like a GUI for traversing and understanding table structure, without having to do \d table. I use cli for everything else.
Jürgen Tautz's "The Buzz about Bees" mentions this.
It says the bees build cylindrical cells around themselves initially, but then raise the temperature of the wax to 37-40 degrees C, when the wax is warm enough to flow into the hexagonal shapes.
