I get the appeal of email newsletters. I really do.

But nothing gives me as much anxiety as sending out an email and then constantly obsessing about whether I made a typo or messed up a link, because I simply can't just edit it like I can with a post on my blog. 😭

@SaraSoueidan I do prefer RSS over email, even for newsletters, and then one can update as much as one like 😌

Seems to be getting quite common to only have email and not have RSS though 🥺

@voxpelli @SaraSoueidan I'm in the same camp. I love it when people publish their newsletters on the Web, too, with an RSS feed so I don't miss any edition. More often than not, I even link to a specific edition, like to share it on chat ("Hey, congrats, you made it into the Foo newsletter!").

@SaraSoueidan Oh, I feel you. It's like what it must have been in print times 😅 But no typos spotted

@marcus I swear I've been having an anxiety attack for like 20 minutes now. 😭 I just sent out an email update for course newsletter subscribers.

Also, all the auto-responders flooding my inbox. Is there like a secret hack people have to deal with this?!

@SaraSoueidan Yup, I'm being one of them, but can relate that the anxiety doesn't care about the number of recipients. Public, semi-public, the fear is always at 11.

No idea about the auto-responders. I guess big mail infrastructure providers "solved" this by filtering it out, rarely confront the author with it?
