Listmonk VS Ghost

Listmonk – An open-source alternative to Mailchimp just released version 3. It’s great as a stand-alone newsletter. Also seems like a low lift for capturing leads for side projects.

We use listmonk, extremely flexible and lightweight as well! I want to try to build a Hubspot integration to fetch contacts directly from Hubspot.

Here is another great self hosted solution that I came across. Really high performance (written in Go). No affiliation but well done open source product.

Hey, looks very cool! If you could share a comparison against Listmonk[1], that'd be useful.

All the best!

It seems that the license not MIT or GPL. The Git repository is here

The deployment also seems rather complicated for just a UI that would use something like SES in the background.

fwiw I've been looking to find a MailChimp or such alternative that's FOSS.

I've both tried ListMonk and Bespoke but both lack on features I might need.

Might just roll my own at this point lmao

Yeah, "don't" is the correct answer. If you're looking for something feature-rich, production-ready and easy to integrate with, I'd say go with listmonk. Plug in any SMTP server(s) you like and you should be golden.

For example, if you are in a country where you can accept Stripe and are publishing a newsletter through, Substack or using the Ghost platform, enabling the ability to accept payments is a few clicks away. For those who cannot accept payment with Stripe, well, you are up the creek without a paddle. I do not know about you, but I see that as a barrier to access.

glee our dev friendly blogging setup has been undergoing a huge transformation for the last few weeks. For those who don't know, glee is a simple open source CLI tool that converts markdown posts into ghost blog posts.

⭐️ 45,000 https://github.com/tryghost/ghost/stargazers Ghost is more than a CMS; it's a whisper in the digital night, a storyteller weaving narratives in the underground. For the bloggers and content punks, Ghost brings Markdown, mobile optimization, and a slick, streamlined approach to shaking up the content cosmos.

Ghost is used by creators to run their own website to publish private content

PlanetScale and Ghost were previously incompatible due to differences in their support for foreign key constraints. With PlanetScale now supporting foreign key constraints, a seamless collaboration between the two is achievable. Nonetheless, there remain minor incompatibilities that require resolution.

I'm a big fan of Ghost for new blogs https://github.com/tryghost/ghost

Ghost - Open Source Alternative to Medium

The most typical approach is having a CMS admin panel sit somewhere on the server; everyone with an account uses this. This is a very convenient approach, especially when working with a team. This way, many people can work on different articles simultaneously without worrying about potential conflicts or overwriting stuff. The only con is related to security - everyone can try to get inside, and if you forget to update our CMS or some user have a weak password, it can be someone outside of our team. WordPress, Drupal, CraftCMS, or Ghost are perfect examples of such CMSs.
