AI versus Marshy - Cool ways n8n is used for ADHD

I’ve been following some amazing projects and tools lately, and I wanted to share with you one of the coolest ways I’ve seen n8n used. For those who might not know, n8n is an automation workflow builder that’s been gaining popularity. I’ve been exploring its capabilities and came across a really inspiring post that I’d like to share with you today. This was a wholesome post in amongst a sea of spam posts With the tool, the writer was able to use the tool to create ways to make his life a little more manageable. Including: a timer that starts when a task is put “in progress” and checks to see if it’s still happening 45 minutes later if there’s any tasks that haven’t been touched in 14 days - gently checking if it’s still needed matching tasks based on how they’re feeling - for “foggy” days, high-volume low effort tasks suit better Voice memo brain dump -> becomes searchable notes The learning curve on these tools is getting better and eventually I see a world where everyone just has custom and personalised solutions for the work they do. I met another ADHDer on Lunchclub recently and their friend had built a “podcast generator” that creates podcasts that are personalised to what the person is interested in, and the ADHDer said they had to stop using it as it was too interesting.
