Keep watchers and stakeholders in the loop with a simple, powerful email and subscription service. (And of course we offer RSS out of the box.)
Some things that make Buttondown particularly great for open source projects:
- We're huge fans of Open Source, and pledge to consistently donate 10% of profits back to the open source solutions that power our software.
- We run in the open as much as possible, always looking to open-source whatever non-core IP we can.
- We offer non-tracking email newsletters, so you can be sure that your users' privacy is respected.
- If your open source project is a registered non-profit, we offer a 50% discount on all plans (proof of registry must be emailed to concierge@buttondown.com).
- We have a robust API that you can use to integrate Buttondown into your existing workflows.
Plus many more powerful features that benefit open source newsletters!
Overall, I'm a big fan of Buttondown and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great newsletter tool that doesn't get in the way.
