I don't have a problem with storing my collections in the cloud behind a login anymore than I do have my company email hosted. It makes my tests accessible anywhere without having to resort to a different file sharing service like Dropbox or Drive.
Wouldn't it be nice to have the option to keep all that shit local though? Like there used to be?
Here's what I want to know: if the point is to make money, why do they need all my requests to MUST live on their server? How does that help them? There must be an answer and I want no part of it.
That is meant for hobby devs. At work i can understand that, because if the works test data gets stolen (by possible data leak or exploit) who cares. But it is Postman just digs itself a grave with that, piece by piece.
my work banned it recently because it now requires the cloud
Yeah there are some companies that think about the risks of everything in the "cloud" ( or rather said, someone elses computer )
Are you using an alternative? Also which company, can I come play?
some google chrome plugin lol
...or Git? Where your source code is?
