Now they are forcing to register to their platform to continue using the collections for free. So most of the users will have to enter their data, or just leave the product (difficult, there's not that much alternative)

Really? I haven't used Postman since Insomnia came out. What's keeping you with Postman?

[Xeophon]

Isn't Insomnia the same? The parent company (KongHQ) is also backed by VCs @ 1.2B valuation. Whats the difference/better?

[enlyth]

Insomnia isn't as far along the enshittification process yet (emphasis on yet)

[filleokus]

KongHQ at least have Kong (the proxy), which I guess they can sell enterprisy support contracts etc for. Perhaps they won't need/want to make Insomnia a subscription nightmare?

But this isn't their main product. As it should be ideally.

I tried Insomnia but for me it felt incredibly janky and half-baked. I tried to like it but at the end Postman was just way smoother sailing for me.

I wish Insomnia had tabs the way Postman does. Also Insomnia doesn't really have a save function, so whereas in Postman you could take a request, modify it, then close the tab without changing the underlying saved request (because you didn't save/overwrite it), you can't do that in Insomnia.

I see Insomnia on the same path. Actually I am moving the Collections to JMeter.

For what I need, it's much better and finally I can use multiple certificates for the same https domain for mTLS, which was a huge limitation in Postman

Fwiw, I use VSCode with the ’REST Client’ extension and it’s pretty much all I need: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=humao.re...

I much prefer the HTTP client that comes with IntelliJ, to be frank.

Same. I can version *.http files with the project so others can easily use them.
