Activepieces backports October's Node.js security update to five release lines.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Moosend and n8n — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Moosend's feed is still all blog posts; no product release has surfaced in two months.
Every entry in Moosend's feed over the past two months is a blog post on marketing topics; the latest is a guide to SEO-friendly content for small businesses. No product feature releases appear in this data.
n8n 3.0 is out, shipped the same morning as 2.46 after weeks of migration-report groundwork.
n8n published 3.0.0 and 2.46.0 within five minutes on October 27, with nearly identical fix lists covering agent runtime, Assistant execution redaction, queue-worker locking and stream cleanup. What is specific to 3.0 is small in the notes: community packages declare v3 node API compatibility, the outbound request guard blocks more IP ranges by default, and misconfigured S3 binary data modes fail at boot. The preceding weeks were spent on a migration report that flags v3 breaking changes, such as the removed LangChain Code node, with CSV export and project filters.

The development direction can't be read from this source. Either the tracked feed is a blog rather than a changelog, or product releases aren't announced publicly. The topics (automation journeys, vertical guides, campaign examples, now SEO) match Moosend's SMB email-marketing positioning but say nothing about what is shipping.
The entries do not support a prediction about the product; a real changelog source is needed before trajectory can be judged.

n8n is running a two-track transition: 3.0 is available, while 2.x keeps getting minors and the 1.x line still gets patches. Most of the engineering in both lines goes to the agent runtime and governance, including credential access checks, redaction and model routing. The migration report is how n8n expects self-hosters to move across on their own schedule.
Expect 3.0.x patches within days and 2.46 and 2.45 backports alongside them; the entries don't show when 2.x stops getting minors.
