Postman alternatives? (self.programming)

I would like to hear if any of you are using different app for API testing than Postman.

I’m not telling that Postman is bad, but maybe there’s all that I should check out. Recently I tried RapidApi and even tho the app is kinda cool I missed few options and went back to Postman for now.

I must be the only moron using JMeter in place of Postman.

real madman. I remember using JMeter few years ago and it was a nightmare. Did it improve over the last 5 years?

It seems about the same. The only real improvement that I’ve noticed, and maybe I just had it set up wrong, is that it can now handle high resolutions. The first time I used it the text was impossible to read. It has a lot of really cool features, but it’s not the friendliest software.
