in the last month or so, I have noticed:
- Websites that pop up a "save this article to read later" box (that integrates with their mailing list);
- related newsletter sign ups in the same style, placed in the middle of articles.

Is anyone aware of a plug-in for Wordpress that does this that integrates with MailChimp? And/or how big sites are doing this?

US Top News and Analysis | Intuit plans to cut workforce by about 17% as tax software maker reckons with slowing growth

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

Intuit announced it will cut roughly 17 % of its full‑time workforce – about 3,000 jobs – as part of a restructuring aimed at “operating with greater velocity” and delivering longer‑term growth. The layoff, which will generate $300 million‑$340 million in charges largely in the current quarter, comes after the company reported fiscal‑third‑quarter earnings of $12.80 per share on $8.56 billion of revenue, just shy of analysts’ expectations, with revenue growth slowing to 10 % year‑over‑year. Despite a 9 % rise in net income to $3.06 billion, Intuit’s shares have fallen more than 40 % this year, reflecting investor concerns that artificial‑intelligence advances could erode demand for its tax and finance software. The company plans to consolidate teams, close offices in Reno and Woodland Hills, and streamline operations after integrating TurboTax, Credit Karma, and scaling back its Mailchimp activities.

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. 😙

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?

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.

@adfichter freue mich sehr auf #ctrl, deinen neuen @republik_magazin -Newsletter.
Müsst ihr für dessen Versand wirklich #mailchimp nutzen?
Die Republik ist in Sachen Bigtech und US-Diensten allgemein nicht gerade "vorbildlich" unterwegs.

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.

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.
