📌 In this episode, you'll learn:
✅ Why free tiers are vanishing across major email platforms
✅ The economic and technical reasons driving this change
✅ How regulation and spam filtering standards play a role
✅ Low-cost alternatives like list-holding, form tools, and pay-as-you-go credits
✅ Strategies for rare senders who don’t want monthly fees
🔗 Explore email alternatives like Amazon SES or Mailgun for credit-based sending
