The header logo seems to redirect to https://www.abyteofcoding.com/abyteofcoding.com instead of simply to /.

Is there a way I can submit an article that might be worth incorporating in your newsletter?

Thought about this as a business idea but didn't find any way to monetize this except to sell something through email list. Can you elaborate on this part?

Currently I just offer people to support me on Patreon or through donations. I might have ads in the future (for non-supporters) if a company whose product I actually use comes to me about it. My only goal right now is to be getting more than I pay per month on mailchimp/hosting, which is about $55. Ultimately I hope that if people find value in the work I'm doing, they'll help support it. If not, oh well. I'm enjoying curating, writing, and connecting with subscribers, and that's enough for me at this point.

Thank you.

But having RSS as an option would be even better for those who already use RSS readers.

I appreciate the tip, but I like the email format more. Reminds me of writing letters and feels more personal.
