N8N is awesome for some tasks, but infuriating for others.

The time I've spent trying to filter seen data from a source is just mind-boggling. It would've been a lot faster to do the whole thing myself.

And I'm not alone in this. Pretty much every task that updates on a timer needs to exclude things it has already seen - and this is a herculean cryptic task in N8N.
