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!
