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.

What are your Most Used Self Hosted Applications?
MailBag - A simple email subscription app I threw together after getting fed-up with Mailchimp.

Bulk/marketing email sending

Prismic.io is increasing our price by *1900%* over Christmas
I using Directus CMS on several projects with pretty complicated flows, api extensions etc. probably there will be some work if you move. I liked Directus is because it's standard SQL I can always move my DB and documents to another solution. I don't use their hosted solution but they have an unlimited offering for $100 / month.

Looking for a (primarily) WYSIWYG platform to build a MySQL interface.
Have you looked at Directus? Iโm not sure exactly what your needs are (sorry if Iโve misunderstood). I used it for my most recent project as the backend for data entry/queries/administration. It supports MySQL, but admins donโt need to know anything about SQL to do complex queries/filters/CSV exports from the Directus UI.
