AcyMailing vs Craft CMS: at a glance
What is AcyMailing?
AcyMailing 11.1 gives subscribers their own tracking switch and fixes one-click unsubscribe.
After the 11.0 security rework and five quick patches, AcyMailing moved to 11.1. 11.1.0 added a front-end checkbox for every user to manage tracking preferences, replaced the date picker with the native HTML one, fixed one-click unsubscribe via the List-Unsubscribe header and hardened some custom fields. 11.1.1 makes emails from its sending service lighter, blocks HTML in custom field values, improves OAuth error messages and stores Gravity Forms list choices in entries.
What is Craft CMS?
Craft 6's alphas have moved from rewriting plugin APIs to rebuilding the control panel.
Craft CMS 6.0 is at alpha.20 on its Laravel foundation. Alpha.19 added inline editing and exports in element indexes, search-as-you-type, a single stacking message system and flyout navigation, with more plugin-breaking changes; alpha.20 continued UI consolidation, moving Matrix, nested elements, addresses and generated fields onto shared Vue controls. The 5.x line still gets small patches such as 5.11.5.1.

AcyMailing
2.5MKT AUTO
AcyMailing 11.1 gives subscribers their own tracking switch and fixes one-click unsubscribe.
◆ Current state
After the 11.0 security rework and five quick patches, AcyMailing moved to 11.1. 11.1.0 added a front-end checkbox for every user to manage tracking preferences, replaced the date picker with the native HTML one, fixed one-click unsubscribe via the List-Unsubscribe header and hardened some custom fields. 11.1.1 makes emails from its sending service lighter, blocks HTML in custom field values, improves OAuth error messages and stores Gravity Forms list choices in entries.
◆ Where it's heading
Privacy and deliverability run through every release since July: optional IP collection, GDPR pixel tracking, anonymous statistics, and now user-controlled tracking and a working one-click unsubscribe. Security fixes keep appearing in minor releases.
◆ Prediction
Expect 11.1.x patches on roughly a two-week rhythm, with more privacy controls and integration fixes such as the Gravity Forms work.
Craft CMS
5.0MKT AUTO
Craft 6's alphas have moved from rewriting plugin APIs to rebuilding the control panel.
◆ Current state
Craft CMS 6.0 is at alpha.20 on its Laravel foundation. Alpha.19 added inline editing and exports in element indexes, search-as-you-type, a single stacking message system and flyout navigation, with more plugin-breaking changes; alpha.20 continued UI consolidation, moving Matrix, nested elements, addresses and generated fields onto shared Vue controls. The 5.x line still gets small patches such as 5.11.5.1.
◆ Where it's heading
Early alphas broke plugin APIs and swapped image libraries; the recent ones are about the editor experience on the new Inertia/Vue control panel, porting each legacy HTML form onto shared components. The breaking-change notes are getting shorter as the UI work grows.
◆ Prediction
More legacy screens moving to shared Vue controls is the clear next step, followed by a beta once plugin-facing breaking changes stop. No date for that is visible in the entries.
