Submission + - Would like to switch from the Postman to the Postwoman. (stackoverflow.com)
jonathandarndt writes: Earlier today, I became fed up with the API testing tool, Postman. There were lots of reasons (the unprompted move of all my data to their cloud, the incessant nags to upgrade, the holding all my old scratch pad data hostage until I broke down and created an account).
Even after downloading an old version (v10.13.6, I believe, the last one that still had offline mode) nothing really changed. The "major" auto-updates were disabled, but there is nothing to do about the minor ones, and you can quickly guess what was updated immediately — which once again archived all the data in my scratch pad.
Are there good alternatives? Is there any hope to disable updates and continue using older version of Postman? I've enjoyed using this program off-and-on for so long I have become somewhat of an addict. (But I have heard good things about Rufus and Hoppscotch, and would like to learn more.)
