Insomnia, an API development/debugging/testing tool, has been thoroughly enshittified. It now requires a cloud account to use, even though most of the use is just sending requests from your local machine (to servers often running on localhost too).

Luckily it was OSS so we have a new fork without the cloud “features”: Insomnium

    but mostly it’s easier to change address based on environment (local, staging, production) without editing each requests
