Thank you, @digisam, for taking your time to reply, and in a most helpful way.
I always appreciate anyone who encourages me to question my own premises.
The essential of this post is to ask @digisam, "How do you use IFTTT? And do you integrate it with KM, or not?"
If you integrate with KM, I suggest a new topic would be appropriate.
(And I'd certainly be interested.)

You are not alone.
I first arrived at this forum suffering from exactly that frustration.
It was a relief to learn here that I was merely suffering from "awkward interface syndrome", not Alzheimer's.

It was an irrelevant photo then, and its been there for 6 years!
In addition, 99% of the text on that photo page is similarly irrelevant.
My judgement stands.
When evaluating software, I start with:
-
Design of web site and demeanor of people in any photos there.
(eg. If photo of teenagers jumping up and reaching for the sky in a mountain meadow, I look for other software.) -
Thinking/reasoning ability demonstrated in writing or videos on the web site..
(eg. If "We are excited to announce...", I look for other software.)
That evaluation takes roughly 10 seconds (video; 30 seconds, maybe).
If web site passes both counts, then I begin to examine the software.
IFTTT failed on both counts.
However, based on the intelligent and thoughtful recommendation from @digisam, I continued to look.

It offers an incredibly powerful set of tools for free. [/quote]
"Incredibly powerful" is often a hindrance to getting simple things done.
I want a simple set of tools.
One reason for the high level of "frustrating and awkward" with KM is that it is, indeed, an "incredibly powerful set of tools".

I order from Tesco 2-3 times/month.
What I'm wanting is Tesco Finest Mango Chutney, but it's often out of stock where I live in the untamed jungle surrounding Bangkok.
IFF ... IFTTT could arrange that, then I might change my tune.
(Maybe.)
