I want to send some emails to my customers and MailChimp is annoying me in so many ways. What are some self-hosted alternatives that I can set up myself?
AWS has a bulk/templating mail option that might be more like what you were hoping for.<p><a href="https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/messaging-and-targeting/introducing-email-templates-and-bulk-sending/" rel="nofollow">https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/messaging-and-targeting/introdu...</a><p>My concern about truly self-hosting this would be my sender reputation - you might find you end up in more junk mail boxes compared to using a service like SES.
Not self-hosted, but less annoying than MailChimp - TinyLetter. It is a MailChimp company, but TinyLetter has fewer features, I found it more friendly for simply emails sending.
