Hi HN, I’m Shayan and a few months ago I started building a DB Client DBDelve with a focus on performance and just making something that feels good to use (in the spirit of Zed, Ghostty, and other tools that just feel pleasant to use). For my workflow I’ve always looked for performance, especially since some time ago I had a really outdated machine and any kind of bloat was really noticeable, I remember using DBeaver and it just crashing on me multiple times, I also had to use postGIS which…

Ive never really complained of DB GUI row listing speed, what matters to me is "can I do X eith a click?" and "if I click will it destroy data?" How does this compare with Navicat or DBeaver feature-wise?
One thing missing in all the GUI clients I know for Postgres's is being able to work with composite types and filtering them like `(IMT, 1)`. Similar as edit things like this, arrays, json, etc
