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 reaches its first release candidate on .NET 11 GA.
Umbraco 19.0.0-rc1 arrived on 12 November, two weeks after the first beta, and moves the release onto .NET 11 GA. The beta brought reusable Library content to every block editor and search into core; rc1 adds Entra ID SQL authentication, action groups in menus, an API switch that lets code block schema changes per environment, and a fix that admits one request per process into the content write path on load-balanced sites. The 18.3 and 17.8 candidates are still on rc2, which resolved seven security advisories.

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 reaches its first release candidate on .NET 11 GA.
◆ Current state
Umbraco 19.0.0-rc1 arrived on 12 November, two weeks after the first beta, and moves the release onto .NET 11 GA. The beta brought reusable Library content to every block editor and search into core; rc1 adds Entra ID SQL authentication, action groups in menus, an API switch that lets code block schema changes per environment, and a fix that admits one request per process into the content write path on load-balanced sites. The 18.3 and 17.8 candidates are still on rc2, which resolved seven security advisories.
◆ Where it's heading
The 19 cycle is moving quickly from beta to candidate, and rc1 is about hardening rather than new editor features: dependencies on GA, environment-level permissions and load-balancing performance. The 17 and 18 lines are kept in step on security fixes while 19 matures.
◆ Prediction
Expect 18.3 and 17.8 to go stable, followed by further 19 release candidates and a 19.0.0 stable release built on .NET 11.
