What's the difference?
Hi apologies, could you clarify for me? Difference with reference to what?
Why is this better than any other service mentioned.
Mainly that it's self-hostable which makes it better for data security, lowers cost, and makes it extensible.
Aren't you then hosting an SMTP source and relay?
You can certainly use SMTP in place of an email provider like SES or Resend, but I don't generally recommend it if you're concerned about deliverability and metrics.
I think this is an integration platform so you can automate a newsletter.
