- shadowgovt 3y agoWhat's the issue with an extension?
- isbvhodnvemrwvn 3y agoI don't particularly enjoy a VC-fueled project having ability to intercept all my browser traffic to handle CORS.
- shadowgovt 3y agoAh, I follow. I was confused because a small, open-source extension should be sufficient to handle sending test requests. Sounds like they're doing something much bigger than that. POSTman started as an extension; hence my confusion. I was wondering if there was a technical issue I was unaware of.
- lima 3y agoRunning standalone binaries by a VC-fueled project on your host is even worse. I guess a separate quarantine browser profile is the best of both worlds?
- snazz 3y agoHaving a dedicated browser profile is a good solution to this if you’re ever uncomfortable with a particular extension.
