Why, newsletters?
I never sign up of extra emails... But I do occasionally add stuff to my RSS reader..
Which is what I read when HN frontpage has nothing interesting.
- ohyeshedid 5y agoMost of the time, because they can't capture leads with a freely accessible rss feed.

But I realise newsletters don't work for everyone, which is why I also post to a freely available web archive. > Which is what I read when HN frontpage has nothing interesting. Well, the next time you have nothing interesting to read, feel free to peruse my newsletter archives. :)

- skinnymuch 5y agoIt is annoying, but different sides and people are merging newsletters and rss. You’ll still get the mailing lists’ new normally unwanted different emails, but at least it will be contained so easier to squash and won’t hit your actual email.
- jopsen 5y ago> Just FYI that's why I (and I assume the OP) Exactly, whenever I see "newsletter" I think spam. Because clearly your content isn't good enough that people will come back on their own.
