		weinzierl on Sept 28, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Insomnia REST client now requires an account Can someone please explain what the core issue is here? The Github issue says "needing an account" but the Kong CEO says below that "2) Insomnia still has a local-only mode (Scratch Pad) that doesn't require any account, that anybody can use. A collection can be imported into Scratch Pad for API debugging purposes." So, if I don't need or want any sharing and keep my collections in the file system, can I still use it without ever creating an account or not?

You can use scratch pad without creating an account, but any workspaces or collections you had saved in Insomnia can't be accessed without an account.
