  • I try to not be hostile towards AI-assisted FOSS projects, but I remain incredibly wary of it for this reason (it being abandonedware) and because if the dev themselves don’t know why they have a piece of code in their project how can I trust that there’s not some obvious security holes. Like yes, it’s FOSS, “so you can check it yourself,” and if I’m seriously considering using the software then I will do a cursory code-review. But I do enough of that in my day-job (and at least I get paid for this), I don’t want to do it with my hobby too. I’m just so tired of all this AI/LLM nonsense to the point where it’s been months since I’ve added anything to my little homelab or have even bothered checking out any of the new projects coming out



  • Yup, Bruno is my choice as well coming from Insomnia and Postman. I was lucky enough to purchase the early supporter lifetime license when it was available, so I’ll be using it for the foreseeable future. Hopefully it doesn’t enshittify as another commenter pointed out.

    While I still use curl for simple requests, I really do like having a GUI. Features like prettifying requests and responses, being able to fold code, saving requests, shared authorization across multiple requests, etc. Are the reasons why I don’t think I could ever really use CLI options.
