I have been trying to setup my own newsletter for ages.
All of the platforms that I researched asked for stupid amounts of money for the services they where offering.
20$/month for 500 subscribers is not fair pricing mailchimp.
So I looked around the web for selfhosted solutions. Finally I found Listmonk, it’s a selfhosted newsletter and mailing list manager, written in go and is extremely performant.
So I wrote an article on how to set that up!
I hope this helps some fellow selfhosters!
If you have any feedback please feel free to comment it bellow.
I agree with you, I don’t want the trouble and just use mailgun free tier.
That said, I just need password reset emails for my IAM solution.
I imagine some just want to try, under the desire to avoid having their email data misused for data collection / ai training
