Insomnia is already pretty good. Other alternatives are also present that cater to basic usage (most of them as browser plugins).

In-somnia is in-credible... And allowing import from postman collections means I've never once looked back.

Postman is quickly trending towards bloatware, where _most_ people just want it for is for a GUI for curl and to share APIs across teams, but Postman becomes more and more bloated with "enterprise" features to justify valuations, while losing focus on the core demo that first adopted it!

Can vouch for insomnia, have been using it for a long time now and it's been great.
