This week a new tool for creating mini newsletters called microletter launched and it's reminiscent of TinyLetter. This got me thinking about the email service provider space which while dominated by a few players could have room for smaller platforms focused on specific niches.

Revue for example has a great UI for list-based newsletters like this one. While Substack is great for long-form writing. Is there room for more ESPs to create tightly focused services for specific types of newsletters? Let me know what you think.

...and this week's featured newsletters cover freelancing, fiction, education, mental health, travel, and more!
