Indiestories (Email Lottery)
Eleven years ago, I signed up to a special newsletter. For the next five years, I got an email every single day from different people. Every email came with a story, each story was a window into the lives of the writer. I loved reading every single one of them. The emails came to an abrupt end in 2018, and ever since then I've been looking for something similar on the internet. Recently I've decided to bring it back to the community of indie hacker / makers / startup founders / investors we have on this platform. There's something about emails that's personable, it speaks to…

So I've just begun publishing a JS newsletter called "A Drip of JavaScript." Rather than focus on the latest JS news (which JavaScript Weekly already does rather well), each issue is just a short article about some aspect of programming in JavaScript. The newsletter is…
- IBI built a site to find the best newsletters2022 · inboxworld.io · ▲12
Hey HN, sharing something I've been working on. I love reading new voices. I subscribe to a lot of brilliant newsletters but found it hard to keep track of all the great stuff I was reading. I'd read something, love it, never be able to find it again. And then, how do you find new ones worth trying? And which posts do you start with?

It's like HN for newsletters! This is a passion project for me and I'm not technical at…
