Isn't Postman's "native" app electron-based instead of being the chrome packaged app from before? So they basically went from Chrome to Chromium and started calling it native...
- OJFord 9y agoIt's not as bad as that, it went from 'You need Chrome so you can install this app' to 'Download this standalone package'. Postman may or may not call it native, I did here, and then tried to clarify what I meant since I realised it's nativeness depended on context.
