Laravel Mailcoach v6 has been released with a new UI and lots of improvements

How are you sending newsletters?
Personally, when recently built my own Laravel-based email-list-sending app, I just decided to stick to plaintext. I worked in email marketing automation for 7 years so did a lot of email building and handling work, and I didn't want to be doing that in my free time, so I kept things simple and plaintext only. Worked well for my audience since they're often tech/privacy focused. Source here if you wanted a peek.

CLI to browser P2P fileshare
I'm trying to find very specific software.I need CLI(!!!) tool like Croc to share files using P2P, but it's very inconvenient to ask people to install same software as me(Croc in this case). Instead i want to get direct download URL, so anyone can download it just by using browser.
