Just curious what people are using n8n for.

I just finished setting up a workflow that sends me a Telegram message every night about photography opportunities for the next day. It puts together weather data, POIs (which I defined for my location), sun/moon position, milky way visibility, cloud cover, etc. The message then simply tells me if it’s worth it going out in the morning.

    I’m not willing to run something that risky on my own infrastructure, therefore I wont run it. I can do all of those things with a handful of scripts or Home Assistant anyway.

        I’m not a slop jockey and I’m watching people plug these kinds of things into public data and having it do operations with financial/business impacts.

        I’d rather employ a gremlin to write scripts.

          Are you aware that you are not required to run AI with n8n? There are two flavors: With AI and without.
