Our take
Pick Postico if mac developers on macOS 14+ who will pay Personal $69 once for up to 3 devices while they run a first macos_version query — then Commercial at $99/device when work pays, not TablePlus Basic $99 first unless they need MySQL / multi-engine beyond Postgres-family. Pick TablePlus if indie developers who will pay Basic $99 once for one device while they run a first products query — then Standard at $129
