I've been using Insomnia, but it seems they've enshittified. I started it up after an upgrade and found that Environments are now paywalled/behind an account. Is there a true open-source alternative to Postman/Insomnia anyone recommends?

I have been using Bruno and I am quite happy with it (+ you can version and share your projects) https://www.usebruno.com/

Yep, it's also able to import Postman collections.

Bruno looks almost exactly the same! Thank you!

I actually don't find bruno that great compare to insomnia. it doesn't have basic features like request history in the free tier.

There's Yaak which is pretty good aside the fact that it doesn't handle huge requests collections without lagging lile crazy.

After trying these two, I went back to insomnia.
