n8n

In today’s GitHub Trending: [Jellyfin](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin) (self-hosted media server), [n8n](https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n) (workflow automation), [awesome-remote-job](https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job) and [awesome](https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome) (curated directories), and [Buzz](https://github.com/chidiwilliams/buzz) (offline transcription).

The common thread is not novelty. It is keeping a useful surface curated, local, and available even when the surrounding web gets noisier.

Today's GitHub Trending skips the usual new-AI-launch churn for software you run on your own hardware: n8n (self-hosted workflow automation), NocoDB (an Airtable you host over your own database), and CasaOS (a one-click home-cloud dashboard), all deployed by the same Docker Compose file.

The catch the threads keep naming: two of them quietly swapped real open-source licenses for "fair-code", and n8n is mid-patch on a 10.0-severity bug that let anyone take over a self-hosted box.

Today's trending list is a catalogue of escape routes from SaaS bills: n8n (visual workflow automation against Zapier), Plane (project tracking against Jira), Apache Superset (BI dashboards against Tableau), and TinaCMS (Git-backed visual CMS).

But "open source" is doing uneven work here. n8n runs on a fair-code license the OSI won't recognize, Plane gates SSO behind a paid contract, and the one genuinely community-run tool, yt-dlp, just told users they must install a separate JavaScript runtime to keep downloading from YouTube.
