> Remember the days of MySQL Workbench and how clunky it was

I loved MySQL Workbench, but it had its faults. Is there any equivalent alternative today? I've dreamed about an app that fuses MySQL Workbench + real-time collaboration, so I can share the same workspace with others in the team and see what others are are up to and collaborate on things.

DBeaver does a good job of this and works with most databases. I would not use MySQL Workbench or PGAAdmin now.

This might be a good implementation but is it not easier to use something that can connect to your database than having to copy and paste chunks of SQL?
