I see n8n everywhere and while I love automation I can’t think of a use case, that couldn’t be realized in Bash instead.

So I’m wondering, if you use n8n what are you using it for?

    I’m not using n8n, but I am using Node-RED and would like to hear from people who have used both.

      I’m running n8n now, and used Node-RED several years ago.

      I’m ultimately coming to the conclusion that I prefer Node-RED. They’re pretty similar in capability, at least for my purposes, and the modern UX of n8n doesn’t make up for its weird license, in-app upsells (e.g. “this feature is only available on the Enterprise plan”), and increasingly AI-centric functionality.
