n8n 3.0 is out, shipped the same morning as 2.46 after weeks of migration-report groundwork.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Dittofeed and Moosend — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Open-source Braze alternative grinding through a slow alpha, now stalled
Dittofeed is an open-source customer-engagement and messaging platform (a Braze/Customer.io alternative). Its v0.24.0 alpha line is a steady stream of fixes and internal plumbing, with occasional batches of real UX work. The feed has gone quiet since late March 2026, so the latest visible release is now several months old.
Moosend's feed is still all blog posts; no product release has surfaced in two months.
Every entry in Moosend's feed over the past two months is a blog post on marketing topics; the latest is a guide to SEO-friendly content for small businesses. No product feature releases appear in this data.

The feed has gone quiet since late March 2026, so the latest visible release is now several months old.
The direction is toward a more usable self-hosted dashboard and more reliable delivery: a command palette, a subscription-management page, subscription-group unsubscribe lists, custom SES endpoints, and a Resend SDK upgrade that fixed silent email-delivery failures. The rest is CI, test, and config maintenance around a single-maintainer cadence.
If the alpha resumes, expect v0.24.0 to stabilize the subscription-management and delivery-reliability work already landed. The gap since March leaves near-term cadence unclear rather than pointing to a specific next release.

The development direction can't be read from this source. Either the tracked feed is a blog rather than a changelog, or product releases aren't announced publicly. The topics (automation journeys, vertical guides, campaign examples, now SEO) match Moosend's SMB email-marketing positioning but say nothing about what is shipping.
The entries do not support a prediction about the product; a real changelog source is needed before trajectory can be judged.
