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?

      No it’s not?

      n8n gives you more freedom to implement multi-step AI agents and integrate apps than any other tool.

      🤷‍♂️ Guess their frontpage is full of shit then.

        It’s automation. Skim the link I sent. Something pops up in a log file or an API returns X instead of Y and you can do some logic based on that. Send yourself an email, ping another API, etc. Sure, you can use it to query an LLM API but that’s just marketing. Frontpages are marketing, yes

          Marketing matters. I am not interested. And that’s fine. I don’t have any use for this product, AI or no AI. Everyone can go about their business now and relax all your efforts to make me interested in this. Thank you for showing me that respect.
