Wesley Schwengle (ID: 0000006d53a879b1) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 08/28/2023 They changed the UI. I don't like the current way. I need to flip the prettify the JSON everytime I refresh the page. I also miss the ability the fold/unfold the JSON. It went from very usable to nice MVP. Would not recommend it anymore.
