Just recently fired Postman back up and it's so different now. Finding it difficult to find my way around when all I want to do is just send a request.

I haven't used it as much in the last 3 years just because I've mostly been building APIs that expose a Swagger UI, but I definitely remember the UI being much simpler back then.

Have y'all moved on to different solutions? If so which ones are you using?

I tried postman and came to the same conclusion as you. I couldn't figure it out at all. I downloaded an app for android called "ApI Tester". I might try out ThunderClient, which others have suggested, if it works on Linux.
