Curious to know more about the commercial licensing scheme for Yaak: if i’ve read correctly, purchasing a pro license if based on « good faith » as the features are exactly the same as the MIT licensed Hobby version? Sincere question, been studying lots of OSS commercial licensing and always wonder what works in which context

I remember when one of the "Core Goals" of Postman was "Complete control over your data - Keep simple JSON based data formats which can be exported and shared as per user needs". https://web.archive.org/web/20140604204111/http://www.getpos...
not possible once you sign away your allegiance to a VC
sign away means getting rid of vcs.

So, I said fuck it and switched to a real, open source alternative, Insomnia, instead:

You're already going down the path Postman did. No way I'm using that.
These api clients are rocket science, the barrier for entry is very low.
