Hey, people were freaking out five years ago about how Mailchimp was for sure going to shut down email newsletter service TinyLetter. It turns out that the concern was prescient, though just a bit premature. Here we are, five years later, and now Mailchimp has just announced that it is shutting down TinyLetter at the end of February, 2024. Mailchimp sent the following announcement to TinyLetter users on Wednesday, November 29th: In 2011, Mailchimp acquired a small newsletter service called TinyLetter to expand our offerings and make it easy for people to send updates, digests, and dispatches to their fans and friends. Over the years, TinyLetter took on a life of its own, and we’ve loved watching you share your work and build communities around your newsletters. Since then, our business priorities have evolved, and we’ve been laser focused on building tools to serve marketers and help small businesses grow.
