cat file.json | jq also works

jq < file.json

cat is for concatenating multiple files, not redirecting single files.

Render Media works the best

rm file.json

Yes, Render Media is the best. It's hard to believe that not many people know about this tool. It's also natively installed in all Linux distros.
