Just recently fired Postman back up and it’s so different now. Finding it difficult to find my way around when all I want to do is just send a request.

I haven’t used it as much in the last 3 years just because I’ve mostly been building APIs that expose a Swagger UI, but I definitely remember the UI being much simpler back then.

Have y’all moved on to different solutions? If so which ones are you using?


EDIT

I’ve been going through the suggestions, here’s the list of suggestions in order of most times suggested or number of points on the comment:

    Insomnia is a bit more like classic postman, though it’s kinda heading the same way too.

    Ended up falling back to cURL and shell history for REST stuffs a lot of the time.

      I think I remember insomnia being a pretty popular alternative when I first picked up Postman. Never gave it a chance but maybe now it’s the time to switch.

      At least it’s open-source, so it’s hard for them to destroy the product completely.
