Our take
Pick Sequel Ace if mac developers who will stay on Free / MIT while they open a first help_topic Content grid — then keep it at $0, not TablePlus Basic $99 first unless they need Postgres / multi-engine on more than macOS. 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 for a second seat, not Supabase’s Free $0 hosted editor
