What is Sendible?
Sendible is steadily hardening publishing reliability and reporting accuracy across networks
Sendible's changelog is genuine product work focused on two areas: making publishing more reliable (rebuilt media infrastructure, universal media validation) and improving cross-network reporting (Facebook Reels analytics, corrected LinkedIn follower data). Recent additions include image alt text for accessibility and a redesigned Unified Calendar for managing drafts, scheduled posts, and queues in one view. The feed shows some duplicate entries for the same feature on different dates.
What is Umbraco CMS?
Umbraco 19's first beta moves to .NET 11 and puts reusable content in every block editor.
Umbraco has three lines moving at once. The first 19.0 beta moves to .NET 11, extends reusable Library content to every block editor and brings search into core. The 18.3 and 17.8 candidates are on a second round, and rc2 on both lines resolves the same seven security advisories, among them a backoffice account takeover through sign-in redirect manipulation.

Sendible is steadily hardening publishing reliability and reporting accuracy across networks
◆ Current state
Sendible's changelog is genuine product work focused on two areas: making publishing more reliable (rebuilt media infrastructure, universal media validation) and improving cross-network reporting (Facebook Reels analytics, corrected LinkedIn follower data). Recent additions include image alt text for accessibility and a redesigned Unified Calendar for managing drafts, scheduled posts, and queues in one view. The feed shows some duplicate entries for the same feature on different dates.
◆ Where it's heading
The direction is operational dependability for social-media managers — fewer failed posts, accurate analytics, and a single workspace for scheduling. Sendible is deepening the core publish-and-measure loop rather than chasing new surfaces. Accessibility (alt text) and unified scheduling suggest attention to workflow polish on top of the reliability foundation.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued reporting-accuracy work across more networks and further consolidation of the scheduling/calendar experience, with reliability remaining the throughline.
Umbraco CMS
6.3MARKETING
Umbraco 19's first beta moves to .NET 11 and puts reusable content in every block editor.
◆ Current state
Umbraco has three lines moving at once. The first 19.0 beta moves to .NET 11, extends reusable Library content to every block editor and brings search into core. The 18.3 and 17.8 candidates are on a second round, and rc2 on both lines resolves the same seven security advisories, among them a backoffice account takeover through sign-in redirect manipulation.
◆ Where it's heading
The maintenance phase visible through September has given way to a major-version cycle. Version 19 consolidates work that had been spread across packages and settings: search moves from a package into core, and Document Blueprints move from Settings to the Library. Its breaking list is long, covering ImageSharp 4, the segment model and the removal of code scheduled for 19, and 18.3's ImageSharp licence check is already catching projects that reference that package directly.
◆ Prediction
18.3.0 and 17.8.0 are dated 29 October on GitHub, though neither has reached this feed yet. The 19 line should continue through further betas, with runtime async the item the team has singled out for feedback.
