In the short term, I don't :P. I have some long term ideas, ideally keeping it ad-free forever.
Also would be useful for business if I could "private label" the service to work on my own domain name (or sub domain) simply by adding a fiesta.cc mx record to my dns.

#33I like how simple this is, but I find the branding a bit off. Nothing is memorable about fiesta.cc, and a .cc domain tells me you may not be serious enough about your business to invest in a better domain.

Thanks for the feedback! I was thinking of .cc as a feature, designed to evoke the act of CC'ing an address to create a list. Wasn't a decision made due to lack of seriousness or to cut costs, but maybe still needs rethinking if the CC connection isn't obvious...
It's really too bad that domain extensions matter at all in how the service is perceived.

#36Thanks for this, we used librelist.com to create our ML last months, but it was too opened (archives on google, anyone could join) for some people. https://fiesta.cc/about do you use mongodb in the backend? If so, could you give us more technical details about how you connect your mail server to the DB?
Yeah, the other nice thing about this compared to librelist is that you can use any list name you want without worrying about conflicts (since lists are tied to the sender's address). Yup, using MongoDB to store everything. I will definitely be doing a post discussing the architecture, etc. Follow @mdirolf or @fiesta and you'll see it when it pops up. The short answer, though, is that I'm running a 3 node replica set…
And that's how clever software is built.

Ah, very cool :) Thanks for the explanation... *btw, I would not use a ".cc" domain for the project, since it is mostly used by malware stuff lately :/
The ".cc" is meant to evoke the act of CC'ing somebody in an email, or creating a mailing list just by cc'ing somebody. Also, they wanted like $1M for fiesta.com or something :P
Edit: On WHOIS, I see you've already had this idea...
