Insomnia is getting worse and worse and I'm worried it won't be better.

I have recently tried Bruno, but it lacked some basic UI features I use regularly, like file picker UI for uploading a multipart file.
I also gave Recipe Ul a look, but I did not see an option to switch environments. (Haven't installed it and tried it, just went through the docs)
So I settled on Hopsscotch. Though their desktop UI is still in alpha, it looked good to me.

Insomnia's source code is FOSS, there are forks since the company's recent changes.

Check out Bruno https://www.usebruno.com/
I switched to it from insomnia and it has been pretty decent once I got used to it

files. There’s support in all jetbrains products, vs code, visual studio, jetbrains even wrote a cli tool for it. https://blog.jetbrains.com/dotnet/2023/07/04/http-client-tools-everywhere/https://kenslearningcurve.com/tutorials/test-an-api-by-using-http-files-in-vscode/
The nice thing about http files is that you’re never going to be locked into some company’s standard. They’re literally all just plain text files.
MS is trying to create a standard. https://github.com/dotnet/AspNetCore.Docs/issues/29431
There’s also https://httpyac.github.io though I’ve never heard of anyone using it.
Anyway, moving away from these proprietary separate HTTP/REST call products is a good thing. Postman really led the enshittification in this area.
