#mailchimp — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #mailchimp, aggregated by home.social.

  1. We just released version 4.12.2 of MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress.

    You can now start using Mailchimp's Site Tracking Pixel with a single click. Your site will automatically be created in Mailchimp (or re-used if already there) and your unique script will be loaded (using deferred loading).

    Also, any sign-up attempts through third-party forms are now processed asynchronously (via WP Cron).

    Enjoy. 😙

  2. Devs, if you're building a web app and want to send out transactions as well as a fortnightly (templated) 'recent updates' newsletter... which email sending service would you recommend?

    Back in the day I would have looked at sendgrid (now very bloated) or mailchimp (not so dev friendly) and more recently have used postmark.

    Wondering if there's something else out there the cool kids are using these days?

  3. Choosing the right email platform in 2026 comes down to whether you need simple newsletters or complex sales funnels. Both have evolved with heavy AI integration. 📧

    The comparison:
    🔹Mailchimp: Best for brand-focused design
    🔹GetResponse: Best for advanced automation
    🔹AI-Features: Both now offer predictive sending

  4. Viele meiner Kunden sind mit #Mailchimp nicht mehr glücklich, weil
    ⚠️ die Preise deutlich angehoben wurden
    ⚠️ Personendaten bei US-Diensten nicht optimal aufgehoben sind
    ⚠️ digitale Souveränität wichtiger wird

    Die Lösung: ein #WordPress Plug-in für den Newsletter-Versand.

  5. Je découvre : dans les newsletters MailChimp, le lien "Modifier ses préférences" permet aux destinataires d'accéder à des infos internes, normalement destinées à celles et ceux qui gèrent la newsletter.

    Il suffit de désactiver les styles pour tout faire apparaître 😬 Démo avec @lesjoursfr (déso). J'ai testé d'autres newsletters MailChimp, c'est pareil. Pas sûr que ça soit gravissime, mais pas non plus idéal.

  6. I'm looking for advice on migrating away from Mailchimp, and using Ghost instead. There's a nice fella in Austria that someone here mentioned recently who offers a fully maintained Ghost setup at very fair prices.

    But when I search this topic all I get is tech outlines on how to move the list from one system to another. I already have a website and a blog on my own server. Still trying to get my head around how best to setup Ghost just for the purpose of a mailing list.

    It's conceptual not technical. I want to envisage how this might look before I get too far down the road.

  7. Back in 2023, I made a Twitter thread on how to switch to a low-cost, open-source #FOSS platform for newsletters called #Listmonk following #Mailchimp's changes to their free plan: xcancel.com/candidexmedia/stat

    Now, almost 3 years later, after many changes in both the Listmonk app and the platform I used to host it, #Railway, I'm faced with having to make some changes to my #EmailMarketing stack. Mailchimp, for its part, seems to have restricted its free plan even more...

    🧵

    #selfhost #selfhosting

  8. Can anyone recommend a free mailing list manager?
    I’ve currently got two lists with mailchimp and it’s too expensive to pay for both! #fedihelp #mailchimp

  9. #Mailchimp bemüht sich aber redlich, in den Spam-Filter zu kommen. Trotz Whitelisting der Empfänger-Adresse kommt die Mail nicht durch.

    #Rspamd straft insbesondere folgende Punkte ab:
    - SUSPICIOUS_URL_IN_SUSPICIOUS_MESSAGE (massiver Einsatz von Redirector-Links)
    - TO_EXCESS_QP  (Empfänger ist unnötigerweise in Quoted-Printable kodiert)
    - REPLYTO_EXCESS_QP (Reply-To ist unnötigerweise in Quoted-Printable kodiert)
    - SEM_URIBL (mindestens eine der in der Mail verwendeten  Domains befindet sich in der Spameatmonkey  Block List)
    - BAYES_SPAM (der Bayes Spamfilter hat den Nachrichtentext als Spam eingeordnet)

    #E-Mail #Spam
  10. I'm interested in starting an occasional e-mail #newsletter to keep in touch with people who like my #TTRPG books. I'd like to avoid #proprietary solutions like #MailChimp.

    Does anyone have experience running an #opensource #selfhosted #mailinglist manager they would like to share? What would you recommend?

    (I am experienced in #Linux and I already have a self-hosted VM).

    #askfedi #foss #freesoftware

  11. Does anybody have any suggestions for a more ethical alternative to #Mailchimp please?

    It’s for a local community group who wants to mail out the occasional newsletter to a small number of people.

    I’ve not used Mailchimp myself, but it just seems the wrong choice if they can use something a little less capitalist mayhem!

    Thanks in advance for any thoughts 😃

  12. Anyone know of free email programs, comparable to #Mailchimp, that respect privacy and are graphically cool like dat? @eff

  13. What We Learned from the Recent Mandrill Outage, mailchimp.com/what-we-learned-.

    Mailchimp encountered a database failure. This is the story of how they have fixed it.

  14. Hoi @adfichter, liebe @republik_magazin, lieber @davidbauer: Ähm, "bye bye big tech", aber die verlinkte URL macht dann eine Weiterleitung auf den grossen US-amerikanischen Mailinglisten-Anbieter #MailChimp? 🙈 Seriously?

    #ByeByeBigTech

  15. Moving away from #mailchimp for the community project I run and want something Europe based.. looking at #Brevo #Mailjet which both look fine and free versions will be more than enough for our needs..but just spotted #Systeme too which has email marketing but many other features which may be useful in the future. Any thoughts or comments from people using any of these. Only need it for general sporadic emails to our business and community supporters about events and news for now .. but may want to sell things like seeds, plants, recipe books, upcycled fabric things at some time in the future. #UkCharity #nonprofit #communitybusiness

  16. Dites les mastonautes geek, qu'est-ce que vous utilisez comme outil de #newsletter ?
    Est-ce que c'est facile de se passer de #mailchimp, pour aller sur un truc un peu plus éthique ?
    Il nous faut juste une intégration possible dans un site web (inscription à la newsletter), mais sinon c'est pas grand chose...
    #boost apprécié :)

    Earlier this year I managed to finally move my email subscribers away from Mailchimp to a self-hosted solution.

    Having moved a lot of things away from big tech in recent years I’ve had moving the newsletters nagging on me for some while.

    I have two email lists. One is my generic list (to which I very rarely send anything out) and the other is the 26 step challenge where subscribers can sign up to receive one of my steps to a better world every fortnight for a year.

    With the way this is set up I knew I’d need to find the right solution. I couldn’t just try one thing and then switch to another one if it wasn’t satisfactory, so a fair bit of research was required.

    I found a number of open source alternatives to Mailchimp which looked like they could do the job for me (plus another which was suggested by one of my subscribers – Thanks Carlos!) and in the end I opted for phplist. For anybody else looking to do similar here is the shortlist I worked from:

    phplist
    Self Hosted (free) / Paid (free if you are an open source project yourself)
    An open source, UK registered, self-funded and owner-managed company, with 20 years of history and a large community of contributors.

    Ecosend
    Paid
    They call themselves the planet’s favourite email marketing platform and offer migration from Mailchimp in seconds.

    Keila
    Self Hosted (free) / Paid
