... thunderbird?

(I'm aware they're no longer maintaining it(?) but it's posed as a genuine option.)

Or Thunderbird...

Sigh... Well, at least Thunderbird still has it !

Er, Thunderbird?

...because it was the logo that was holding Thunderbird back.

More deckchair rearrangement from Mozilla, sadly.

What about Thunderbird?

Maybe they could work on Thunderbird again; that's a product actually used that doesn't have many real competitors.

I really, really hope not. That'd be the one sure way for me to stop using Thunderbird (like I have stopped using FF).

I thought thunderbird was not actively maintained? This is great if that is the case.

thunderbird?

Thunderbird?

expertentipp | karma 1940 | avg karma 1.69 · | 2023-03-08 12:13:15

yes, thunderbird

I take it you mean that as a rebuttal, because Thunderbird is still being released? At first I thought you were just offering another example of something cancelled, and I was pretty sure (but not positive) Thunderbird was still around. It is.

Thunderbird is still a thing people use? That's probably the biggest news to me.

Sorta! It's no longer a Mozilla Corporation product, although it's still owned by the Mozilla Foundation (it spun off as MZLA). But that being said, yes, I agree!

(Thunderbird isn't great, though, and there's no iPhone version. I'd much rather be able to, for example, use Superhuman or Spark or something. Right now, I give Google all my data, and don't even use the GMail interface.)

Is that not what Thunderbird is (amongst other things)?

stop50 | karma 534 | avg karma 0.54 · | 2023-09-20 15:44:15

Even when my predominant os was windows, i didn't found any replacement of thunderbird(it was before firefox made the quantum update)

kendru | karma 153 | avg karma 4.25 · | 2021-10-27 11:46:33

I honestly had no idea that Thunderbird was still around. It looks kind of... nice, actually.

folkrav | karma 1388 | avg karma 2.39 · | 2023-07-10 08:08:29

Aaaah. So that's why I wasn't finding anything, I thought I was going crazy. That landing page seems to hint that it's currently available ("Upgrade to version 115 and experience the future of Thunderbird!").
