Hi @meshpaul newer versions of Insomnia are not only great for enterprises, the latest versions of Insomnia have had the highest usage of any other Insomnia version ever. We are really pouring a ton of resources here. I really want to understand something that is not clear to me, and I would like to be as non-provocative or offensive as possible by asking the following question, because it truly is for my personal understanding. Insomnia is a product that delivers a certain amount of value to its users, arguably your are one of them. But building Insomnia is not free, we depend on the conversion of a certain amount of users to a paid plan. As such, even in its free version, we ask for an account in the hope that our premium capabilities will allow to convert a subset of our user-base into a paid plan which will further drive development of both the open source and premium versions of Insomnia. Insomnia without a customer base - like every other product in the world - just cannot exist as a product in any capacity, including OSS. As such, just so I understand better, what is it that is so repulsing about creating a free account on Insomnia? |

I need a tool, not a product |

I wholeheartedly agree with @meshpaul and @emschu . I've been using Insomnia for years and have been an ardent promoter to many friends and colleagues. The 8.0 version has turned a beautifully simple tool into a worse-than-competitors product that I will now recommend others to avoid. A return to the no-strings-attached 2023 build would be best |

The current product has changed dramatically. While this may be great for enterprises and some features that are added to build revenue is understandable. There is big portion of folks whant the Non mandatory account creation version that was offered in the Version: Insomnia 2023.5.8 Build date: 9/7/2023. IMHO 8.0 is not suitable for Small teams/Start-ups and needs an enterprise version of it that added as part of 8.X features. While 8.3 and beyond tries to address these concerns the trust is lost in the product. Recommend to roll out ether less invasive product that is similar to 2023.5.8 Build date: 9/7/2023
