I've been using Insomnia, but it seems they've enshittified. I started it up after an upgrade and found that Environments are now paywalled/behind an account. Is there a true open-source alternative to Postman/Insomnia anyone recommends?

You know what's better than downloading Postman? Not downloading Postman.

Yeah till you need to make an actual request with a body 150 lines long, multiple headers, and also need to switch between multiple environments. Curl is fine, but it’s not workable realistically for devs doing API testing.
