I found the reply from (someone from(?)) the company very amusing. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37697367

#52Do you have a plan to maintain it long-term or is it just a fork in sake of a fork? Other than that, for UI/manual testing I'd recommend Restfox or Bruno and ezy for gRPC. Hurl and Step CI for automated testing Restfox: https://github.com/flawiddsouza/Restfox Bruno: https://github.com/usebruno/bruno ezy: https://github.com/getezy/ezy Step CI: https://github.com/stepci/stepci Hurl: https://github.com/Orange-OpenSource…

#54Shameless plug: This is why I created Yaade. A self-hosted alternative to Postman and Insomnia. Unfortunately, being OSS is not enough anymore. The rug-pulls will keep happening. Remember: If you don't host it, you don't own it!
Check out Yaade on GitHub. Will be interested to hear what you guys think.

#56Huge thanks! I have been using Insomnia for quite a long time because postman never made sense to me with all the online data sync. I just want to keep everything myself, so really appreciate the insomnium fork here.
