Reading a help page, and after a list of instructions it says: "Nice job". After another one, "Excellent!". I'm Really struggling to formulate the thought process that leads to congratulating users for something you don't know they actually did or even understood, as though everybody setting up campaigns is seven years old.

I'm so angry with MailChimp. I hate them generally and resent the (tiny) part of my job that needs to use it... but they've just managed to screw up my audience, and now I can't use the damn thing at all with the email addresses I have. Fuck you.
Any suggestions for a decent alternative that will enable me to create a mail template, ideally on a free account?

We have <300 subscribers and send maybe 4 mails a year. Small beer.

With being awful about unions, I'm interested in ditching them for a new service. I have a single list of ~100 subscribers and I need to be able to support segmenting that list, merge tags for custom subscriber data, and RSS-to-email campaigns. Anyone have a recommended service they like?

I'm looking around for a blog+newsletter platform and so far is the clear winner; simple, looks great, good price (USD$9/month). I looked into and OMG it's more complicated than using which I hate. A close second would be which is perfect for illustrators. I am also considering returning to which I liked a lot but there's no blog/website component (other than static landing pages, meh), however it is free for under 2,500 subscribers. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Liebe alle, ich habe ja vorhin diesen Toot geteilt.

Da geht es auch um #Newsletter. Ich habe zum #uhleblog auch einen. Der kommt jeden ersten im Monat. Realisiert wird das mit #Mailchimp.
Gibt es aber irgendwas zuverlässiges für #WordPress, sodass ich auf Fremdanbieter verzichten kann? Und wie zieht man die Abonnenten dann um?

Hab das da gefunden. Taugt das was?

Mailchimp trying to union bust at another company. I guess it’s time to ditch Mailchimp if you use their service for newsletters.

Any Mastodon/Mailchimp aficionado’s on here? Wanting to add a Mastodon icon to the footer of our Mailchimp newletters. Currently only seeing Twitter but no Mastodon. Perhaps not possibleyet?

another one bites the dust: is deleting everything on february 29th, including old newsletter archives, because tech companies are apparently bound by law to torch archives when they leave. fuck 'em all.

Anyone with small mailing lists (<500) have recommendations so I can get out of Intuit's grasp (I've been a #MailChimp user forever, and have just been lazy about getting out since they were acquired.)

Mittwochs um 12 Uhr kommt der D3 Newsletter mit den -News der vergangenen Woche

Nachdem seine ToS geändert hat und AI-Kram machen will, habe ich den Newsletter von dort weggezogen und versende jetzt mit einer Installation auf dem eigenen Server. Heute kam er zum ersten Mal von dort und soweit ich sehe, hat das gut funktioniert 😅

Solltest du die Mail allerdings heute nicht bekommen haben, dann gib mir bitte Bescheid!

Oh hey look another updated terms and conditions for a software provider (this time Mailchimp) that lets them use your sh*t to train their AI. 🙄

Yeah, I'd love to hear some tips for alternatives to as well!

Any simple (and ethical) services out there?

Going through my packed clothes, I can finally share one of my favorite thrift finds. Unfortunately I'm far too anxious to wear this in public...

The only identifier is that the Mailchimp logo and title is printed on the back, which leads me to believe this was a custom design done by the Mailchimp team at some point?
I can't find anything on this online.

Urrrrgh! Having to deal with email designs is already terrible enough. Having to deal with Mailchimp's terribly slow and buggy interface is even worse!
