Pros
Pro Easy to use
Way less confusing than other DB managers, and has a simple tabbed interface that feels more like VS Code.
Pro Free and Open Source
MIT License!
Pro Postgres
I use SQLite, MySQL, and Postgres, and Beekeeper supports all of them!
Pro Autocomplete
The autocomplete is useful but not obtrusive
Pro Clean and pretty UI/UX
The default color is dark and comfortable for the eyes.
Pro Multiple Query Tabs!
The multi-tab and multi-SQL-runs are great. It's always good to be able to compare results in one window instead of having to go through and re-run stuff.
Pro Fast Auto-complete
Pro Multiple Databases
They only support 2 at the moment (MySQL and MariaDB) but their social site says they'll be updating with more DBMSes in the near future which is pretty nice because I hate learning new GUIs~
Pro Cross-Platform
Not sure about Linux but it works on Windows and Mac just fine!
Pro Free!
Cons
Con Not for a DBA
It's great for web/app developers who interact with a database, but if you're a full time DBA you probably have better powertools available
Con Requires creating an account
Requiring an account is rare on SQL IDEs...
