Bruno
Looks very nice; I've also given up with Postman. gRPC support would probably get Bruno into my daily workflow immediately. I spent a couple hours in Postman trying to get gRPC to work and could not- the .proto files were never used successfully, and I had better experiences with Kreya [0] and grpcui [1].

HTTPie Desktop: cross-platform API testing client for humans
Kreya [1] can do that. It is even optimized for it, so that diffs should be perfectly readable.

Tell HN: Postman just wiped all my stuff
As one of the creators, I can recommmend https://kreya.app. It is not open source (like Postman), but has a strong focus on privacy and also stores the data locally.
As it has more powerful features (IMO) than most alternatives listed here, I am a little disappointed that it isn't mentioned more often.

Ask HN: Alternatives to Insomnia?
Given the recent update[0] pushed by the Insomnia team I am now looking for alternatives.
For now the best alternative I've found is Bruno[1]. But sadly it does not support gRPC.
Does anyone have a better solution?
These are some options I've looked into:

- https://hurl.dev/

Best alternative to Postman?
I like Kreya (kreya.app), but I am biased, since I am one of the creators :)

Milkman (postman alternative) now supports http/3
Have you tried Kreya? While it does not support all of the many features of Postman, it has some innovative features. While also being web-based, it uses the native WebView of the OS, resulting in less RAM-usage than Electron based apps.
