What service do you use to run your newsletter/weekly digest?
Hey IH's!
Daniel here, I'm currently trying to figure out what's the best way for me to run a weekly digest type of newsletter for my product. I've tried buttondown.email & substack and didn't really like any of them, can't really explain why which is interesting.
Would love to hear about what services yall are using for your newsletter:)
I use emailoctopus for unicornsfeed.com. with custom template.
Did you have a look to hashnode.com? Is great too.
I've been trying to find more details about creating a custom template for emailoctopus. Do you have a resource for this?
Well, there's many resources like:

What I did was to get a template from Email Love and adapt it to my needs and taste.
Thanks Michael, appreciated!
You welcome mate.
Converkit, Email Octopus or Ghost are popular options.
I’m using Ghost and ConvertKit together. I wanted the ability to customize the home page of the newsletter which is why I chose Ghost. ConvertKit provides a ton of automation features and analytics that Ghost doesn’t have yet.
Also, Ghost doesn’t charge any transaction fees for their membership feature.
For GrowthMarketer Weekly, I use ActiveCampaign.
I'm starting my newsletter soon, all the setup is done. I'm using Convertkit. Also heard good things about MailerLite.
If you're curating links to content, check out Revue. I use it for InboxReads and it makes it really easy to add links and organise it. It's not very customizable though.

For my curated roundup newsletter I use Revue and shared my publishing process in a blog post.
