Dropped insomnia after it started to ask me to login and collaborate on things

Postman was great when it made APIs simple, but over time all the accounts, cloud sync, and extra features kind of slowed down the core workflow. And then a lot of clients just ended up copying that model instead of rethinking it.

On the optimistic side we are seeing some stuff that want to rethink this: tools like Voiden and Yaak with a few new approaches like  Git-native workflows, reusable request pieces, more composable setups basically making API work feel more like actual dev work again.

true :) I heard this actually even from ex insomnia folks - the direction could have been much different.
