FYI Brave, and I suppose Chromium, has a flag that, when enabled, when typing an existing tab/already open website, shows the the existing tab instead of allowing to create duplicates by mistake.

Firefox offers this in the dropdown when typing a URL, there's a "Switch to Tab" option to take you straight to the existing tab instead of creating a duplicate.

This looks great! We've been building a wealth tracker with https://markets.sh and were a bit flabbergasted when people started "abusing" our automatically syncing Yodlee connection to hook up all of their checking and credit card accounts (technically we market only for brokerages and investment accounts). We have a free and simple API and plain CSV download which in itself seems to be a real pain point for people.

Apparently, just being able to pull your financial data into open-source tools and excel could be a product since Yodlee and other aggregators are often too expensive and technical to set up for individuals.

I think we need to force all financial companies to have a modern API and OAuth available for everyone via legislation.

All of these tools will at least run an introspection query to get the available tables and columns to display the data. But these queries will fail because SQLite doesn't have these tables.

So the idea is very nice, but any existing tool for PostgreSQL will not work. You need to either work with the psql terminal application or write a new client.

This is explicitly accounted for, as per the README:

> Many Postgres clients also inspect the pg_catalog to determine system information so Postlite mirrors this catalog by using an attached in-memory database with virtual tables.
