I opened #Postman today and my collections and stuff were nowhere to be found and a message saying don't worry, just login into yada yada. Excuse me but I thought I had a local app to do local development? Ah OK, a short 'net search later came with an Insomnia fork (which, BTW, apparently came into play when those did the same move Postman is doing now), and hey, an Appimage ready to use, so hello, #Insomnium. It's FOSS, works great, no logins. Now that I'm here: thanks to their devs. :)
@ttntm I guess you work with an online account? Because the change was forced (or announced at least), it seems, past May: https://blog.postman.com/announcing-new-lightweight-postman-api-client/
I didn't notice because it has been a while since I had to test APIs with Postman, so this hit me today, when I had to troubleshoot some endpoints for a $dayJob project. Creating an online account is maybe not such a big deal, but why, when there's exactly what I needed, namely Insomnium, ready to use. :)
@array I must've missed that. I had an account there for a while, but I was somehow under the impression that my local client would be using a local configuration. Damn you "sign in with google" I guess.
