The day has finally arrived. Mailchimp is shutting down Tinyletter, a company they acquired in 2011 and haven’t touched it since. It was a great service that I used extensively. It was one of the simplest services ever. Even in its frozen-in-time vibe, it was good enough. I’ve since moved a couple of my active newsletters to Paragraph, which I like, but not really as much as I once liked Tinyletter. Given the news of its impending demise, I exported all of my newsletters and mailing lists and deleted the accounts. We knew this day would come.

And for those of you wondering why I didn’t switch to Substack? They have a Nazi problem. No thanks!
