The pma comparison table is over 5 years out of date. While adminer still has plenty of features over pma, when half the list is out of date or subjective it's a big turnoff. (Especially considering the size)

The page should be updated with a more modern comparison, less subjective comparisons, and generally made shorter and easier to read.

Ideally, highlight pma's pain points: Multiple DB type support, can't select fields without an input popping up, iframe weirdness, speed etc will hit home to anyone who's used pma

    Yeah, the comparison with phpmyadmin should be done more neutral.
    Some of the statements are just not right in 2019.

    And some of the arguments are more an opinion and can differ by use cases.
    Some red/green comparison would be neutral or even green/red for me.

    As I know both programs a bit this comparison in its current status has a bad smell for me.

    Both applications have strength and weaks.

    Content of website also on github for change requests?

      Feel free to create your own comparison and I'll link it from https://www.adminer.org/en/reference/.

    There's now a disclaimer at this page and I've unlinked it from adminer.org (www.adminer.org).
