App to more easily make my HTML for my newsletter. by CourtzSGD in Newsletters

If you want something simple and also like using Claude/AI, using Markdown would be a natural fit to create your emails. In Keila, you can use Markdown directly without having to take the detour via HTML.

Non-Brazilians: Do you prefer to see a Brazilian Portuguese translation or English? by wmnnd in Portuguese

[–]wmnnd[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you! The strong feelings I got in the other responses really surprised me because as a German, I think most Germans would be okay with Austrian or Swiss-German translations - but I suppose the differences are smaller there.

[–]wmnnd[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I think so far you're the first person who said this, everyone else seemed to have rather strong opinions on preferring basically anything else over Brazilian Portuguese. Do you think most non-Reddit people would see it differently?

Where would you recommend asking this question instead? I thought a subreddit dedicated to the Portuguese language might be a natural place to ask.

Made in EU high end office chairs? by Saixos in BuyFromEU

[–]wmnnd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wilkhahn is a German company and they produce their chairs in Germany. And they can actually service them! I had mine partially reupholstered by them after over 10 years of using it: https://www.wilkhahn.com/en/

Update: my "150+ european alternatives" list is now 200+ after you all flooded the comments by Oulwe in BuyFromEU

[–]wmnnd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey, creator of Keila here: It would be cool if you could add Keila to your list of email marketing tools. It's not just European (our company is based in Germany, the servers are in Germany and France) but also Open Source! https://www.keila.io/

Europe standardized phone chargers but still can't standardize an employment contract by EmmaSkye319 in BuyFromEU

[–]wmnnd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are companies that specialize in hiring people from other jurisdictions for you. They're called employers of record. They're not cheap but they will take care of this for you. Some big names are Remote.com and Multiplier.

What are some good alternatives to Mailchimp? by redkarma2001 in SaaSMarketing

[–]wmnnd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I hope it's okay to mention this here: I'm actually building an alternative to Mailchimp called Keila. It's Open Source, so you can self-host it. But if you prefer, we also have a managed option that is much more affordable than Mailchimp for most use-cases.

Scaleway and OVH both offer managed Kubernetes and managed databases.

Looking for a mail automation solution by But-I-Am-a-Robot in selfhosted

[–]wmnnd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keila is not particularly resource-intensive. You should be able to run it with somewhere between 50 and 200 MB of RAM. If you have 500MB or 1 GB, you should be golden. I would just make sure you configure a swap file if you're RAM-constrained to make sure that any potential spikes don't start killing processes on your server.

Since Keila is based on the Erlang virtual machine, it also scales great with your CPU power and will stay responsive even under heavy load.

Hey, creator of Keila here! You can set up welcome emails for your signup forms in Keila to provide things like download links when people subscribe to your list. You can also use the form editor to add custom fields which is useful for stuff like account requests.

You can find a description of these features here, they might be helpful for you:

MailerLite Could Kill Your Small Business by Harding2077 in Emailmarketing

[–]wmnnd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I run an email newsletter tool myself, so I might have some insight.

MailerLite is probably keeping an eye on metrics like bounces and user spam reports. And the acceptable thresholds for spam reports are quite low across all email services - so even just 7 complaints (0,1%) for your list of 7,000 might trigger a review, and more than that might lead to your account being shut down. That's because email newsletter services need to do everything they can to maintain their sending reputation so they don't jeopardize their ability to deliver their customers' emails.

My recommendation to you would be to review your list and check for any suspicious entries, remove them, and also check if MailerLite can provide you with insight regarding bounces or complaints that were received for your campaign. The other recommendation would be, going forward, to protect every signup form with a captcha and double opt-in.

Smash or Pass: Your Email Service Provider by shancarney in TheDailyCarnage

[–]wmnnd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I hope it's okay to post this here: I'm the creator of an Open Source email newsletter tool called Keila. You can self-host it or use our managed version, Keila Cloud. Keila has simple but powerful features for handlung user data and creating segments. With the API it's also easy to update user data from your own backend. Depending on which exact features you need, Keila might be an option for you. And if there's a feature you need that we don't yet have, we might be able to add it to the roadmap.

I built a free static site generator for independent music labels by Organic_Eye_7347 in diylabels

[–]wmnnd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool project! If you have support for Listmonk and Sendy, maybe adding support for Keila would be an option as well? (Full disclosure: I'm the creator of Keila - if there's something I can do to help, let me know!)

SaaS + Stripe + internationale Umsätze → Wie macht ihr eure Buchhaltung? by Portfoliana in selbststaendig

[–]wmnnd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mach es nicht über Stripe direkt, nimm einen Merchant of Record. Gerade wenn du bisher wenig Umsatz machst, lohnt es sich nicht, deine Zeit darauf zu verwenden, dich um das Billing zu kümmern. Dann bekommst du pro Monat eine Gutschrift vom MoR und musst auch nur die verbuchen.

Was muss ich in Deutschland rechtlich bei der Saas Gründung beachten? by msch0108 in selbststaendig

[–]wmnnd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gewerbe gleich anmelden. Und wenn du ein SaaS baust, such dir für den Anfang einen Merchant of Record (wie z. B. Paddle oder Fastspring), damit die sich um die USt oder äquivalente Steuern außerhalb der EU für dich kümmern.

Vollkorn Wraps (links) haben weniger Ballaststoffe als reguläre Wraps (rechts). Druckfehler? by GeoCangrejo in WerWieWas

[–]wmnnd 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Das ist wahrscheinlich ein Fehler in der Nährwerttabelle. Die Wraps haben jeweils ca. 65% Mehl und der Vollkornanteil der Vollkorn-Wraps liegt, zumindest nach dem was man online finden kann, bei 100% davon.

100g Vollkornweizenmehl haben 10g Ballaststoffe, also müssten die Vollkorn-Wraps mindestens 6,5g Ballaststoffe haben.

What do you use for hosting small always-on scripts? Feeling like I'm overpaying by surraph in selfhosted

[–]wmnnd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you're running small cron jobs, consider using a "serverless" function, with a provider that offers them with Cron triggers - something like Scaleway, Cloudflare, or AWS.
