I'm a bit late to the party here because I haven't needed Postman for a while, but how is it okay that now we have to LOG IN TO POSTMAN and send our API requests to them for them to store on their own cloud?

Postman is also crazy expensive when paying for a team account. Like, there’s no way you represent that much value to the product. We just moved to cURL and have a git project where we store common requests to share.

You may already know this, but jq makes working with JSON at the CLI more productive.

This is it. The point of the enshitification is to stop people from sharing a Postman collection file for free on Git, and make them pay a subscription to access their team's requests online.

Bloody no. No good steward of their boss's money would sign up for that.
