Make the finishing touches yourself, or let Buttondown do it for you.
The internet's enduring spaces, free from central ownership, are RSS and email. These technologies prompted my switch [to Buttondown]. Embracing the POSSE model—Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Everywhere—resonates deeply with me.
Rian van der MerweRSS feeds are the internet's original content syndication protocol. They're everywhere: every blog, every podcast, every news site. But RSS readers are dying, and email newsletters are thriving.
We think that's a shame. RSS feeds contain some of the best content on the internet, but they're trapped in a dying ecosystem. So we built RSS-to-email: a way to automatically turn any RSS feed into a beautiful email newsletter.
Here's how it works:
- Point us at any RSS feed — your blog, your favorite podcast, your competitor's newsletter, anything
- We'll fetch new posts automatically — every day, every week, or every month
- We'll format them beautifully — using our powerful templating engine to make them look exactly how you want
- We'll send them to your subscribers — with your branding, your voice, your everything
It's that simple. No more copying and pasting from RSS readers. No more forgetting to share great content. No more manual curation.
Just point, click, and publish.
Buttondown is the last email platform you’ll switch to.
