What is it?

Kill the Newsletter! gives you a unique email address for each newsletter subscription. Incoming emails sent to that address are converted into entries in an Atom feed, so newsletters can be read in any feed reader instead of an inbox.

The project is written in TypeScript and is built on the radically-straightforward framework, with deployment and development guides linked from its README. A hosted instance runs at kill-the-newsletter.com.

Because it turns email into feeds, it suits people who want to keep newsletters out of their inbox while still following them.
