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

Do you have federated channels? Like matrix, lemmy, mastodon, etc.?

[-] chandler@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

Currently, the way you'd integrate with federated channels is via our webhook channel, but we do plan on building first-class integrations for matrix and lemmy in q1 of next year.

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

Also no link to the repo.

[-] chandler@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

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!

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.

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

[-] chandler@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

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

Hi sorry, I didn't realize the previous image link replaced the github link. Just edited the post to fix that, but here it is as well: https://github.com/dittofeed/dittofeed

Thanks for brining to my attention!

[-] ptz@dubvee.org 2 points 1 day ago

Cool, thanks!

[-] chandler@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Hi apologies, could you clarify for me? Difference with reference to what?

Why is this better than any other service mentioned.

[-] chandler@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Mainly that it's self-hostable which makes it better for data security, lowers cost, and makes it extensible.

Aren't you then hosting an SMTP source and relay?

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 1 points 11 hours ago

I think this is an integration platform so you can automate a newsletter.

[-] chandler@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

You can certainly use SMTP in place of an email provider like SES or Resend, but I don't generally recommend it if you're concerned about deliverability and metrics.
