insomnia just enshittified itself and requires cloud login like postman, and force upgrades you from the old version even if you disable updates. this blocked me at work today.
this client looks great, wanted to boost it here in case anyone else got screwed by Insomnia this morning.

Doesn’t support OpenAPI… sigh.
might be a cool thing to try and contribute
out of curiosity, what does that mean precisely? being able to import/export an OpenAPI spec? (not super familiar with OpenAPI, I know you can get an OpenAPI collection in a json file)
Import from OpenAPI, yes. Super useful if you use Swagger and it starts lagging :)
Such a shame Insomnia went down this route.
Hope I can export my data into Bruno HTTP, although really no big deal if I can’t tbh - will just build up those requests again.
Why does it feel like API testing and documentation apps are low hanging fruit for enshittification 😭
bc why just have HTTP requests and plain text when you can c l o u d S a a S
Was shocked to find you can’t even save postman requests now without logging in

Oh eww I haven’t booted insomnia in a bit, that’s irritating. From a quick glance this looks solid, going to give it a try.
Ditto. Now I can take the reins and replace it now instead of when I need it.
I think as the enshitification cycle speeds up on the net, the tolerance threshold from users will go down and they’ll switch earlier. MAYBE this will help interoperability. Trying out being less cynical lately and I’m not sure I believe myself.
