Hi self-hosters, we're building a self-hostable, MIT-licensed alternative to Klaviyo, Braze, Mailchimp, etc. You can automate email, SMS, WhatsApp, and lots of other channels.

The core functionality of the platform includes a user segmentation builder, a low-code email template editor, and a low-code drag-and-drop journey builder for creating automated messaging workflows. We also have subscription groups to manage unsubscribes.

If you need any help with deploying an instance, reach out on Discord! https://discord.gg/HajPkCG4Mm

Really disliking that discord is used as helpdesk/forum. Not really searchable via the web.

Also no link to the repo.

I agree. Bad for SEO as well. I'd say that Discord chose us more than we chose it. That's where our initial users wanted to talk with us.

There's a link above the body, but I just added one to the body as well. Thanks for the note!

really weird that they only included a discord link, but here is the repo: https://github.com/dittofeed/dittofeed

It was my mistake. The post should be updated now, but please let me know if you're still not seeing the link.

I’ve always felt discord was way too ephemeral and caused a lot of question to be re-asked over and over.

You'll hate to hear this and it'll age you 50 years but... The new generation doesnt use Google unless everything else fails. They will search discord, tiktok, and ChatGPT directly first before they ever touch google 🫠

Because Google sucks ass. Other search engines are better only because Google got so bad. And I speak from someone who stayed on the internet just after BBSs became ISPs with blazing fast 14400 baud modems.
