Hi all,

I have seen lately that the ‘source available’ N8N (which is excellent), has starting increasing pricing and restricting what you can get for your pricing.

In time, I can only assume this will get worse. Now, they deserve to get paid, and that’s fine, but I had gone in thinking this was open source, but I see now it’s not that at all.

This has led me to wonder if there’s a true open source / self hosted alternative to N8N out there? Doing a bit of a hunt shows ‘source available’ alternatives, with a price point, and restrictions. I’m wondering if any team has tackled this in a truly open manner and if there’s something out there?

Thanks so much

    Node red is designed to use as little function nodes as possible. Sure, you can do anything with function nodes, but at this point, why use node red at all?

    Look at sub flows, grouping flows and environment variables for sub flows, it will enhance what you can do a lot.
