Where is API tooling lacking ? (lemmy.world)

The default API tooling that comes to your mind is Postman.

Postman is cloud based - the other offline alternatives are on their way to enshittification.

Is there any solution to the problem or we should all default to curl.

There's also https://hurl.dev/ for those that like curl

That looks cool, I also just discovered https://github.com/VoidenHQ/voiden, which seems similar but uses Markdown instead.
