I signed up for mailgun to have a domain email address. Currently it is forwarding all emails to my personal email.

I want to start a newsletter, and was told mailchimp is the way to go to achieve this for ease of use and design.

I know there is a slight overlap between the two, but mailgun is mainly directed at developers (of which, I am not), while mailchimp is directed towards marketers (also, not a marketer).

Is it redundant to use both?

Is there a better workflow to achieve both a newsletter and an email service for my domain/discourse?

Mailgun 提供了一种发送批量消息的方式。同时使用 Mailgun 和 Mailchimp 应该是没问题的。

Yeah totally normal to use both! We use Mailgun for automated (aka “transactional”) emails, both Discourse and things like Wordpress account creation notifications. And Mailchimp for everything else i.e. newsletter / marketing stuff.
