    phpMyAdmin is specifically for managing a MySQL/MariaDB instance. Not comparable. Unless you are looking to only interact with MySQL.

    dbForge Edge is a versatile IDE that shares similar features, so I can get the work done in a similarly streamlined way regardless of which DBMS I'm working with.

    Beekeeper studio is ligher weight (and less featureful) than DBeaver, but it is exactly what I need 99% of the time. Deals with remote Postgres DBs and local sqlite files seamlessly
