Show HN: Weightless – a minimalist newsletter tool for static sites Collecting emails sounds easy but if you have a static site, you need to use some sort of an external service for this. Maybe I am too picky but I didn't like the available options so I built one myself. Here's how it works: - You create a mailing list on the landing page (weightless.so) - It gives you a URL you can attach to a

tag as an action attribute - Any time someone submits that form, you receive an email with your subscribers Collecting emails this way is free, and if you already have a styled form, you can have this up & running in couple minutes. I know Show HN posts shouldn't require signing up, but I do need to have an email because that's where you get your subscribers list. One note: Weightless also allows you send mass emails to your subscribers, but that's a paid feature. You DON'T have to use it, you can use Weightless only for collecting emails, and worry about messaging them later. When you are starting out and have only a couple subscribers, you can simply email everyone manually, one by one. https://weightless.so/ August 5, 2022 at 07:29AM
