I used TB happily for years on Mac OS but its font rendering on Linux was one of the main reasons I never switched.

when i used windows i was happy with The Bat email client: https://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/thebat/download.php

I wish I could donate without entering an email address.

My usual reminder that actually Mozilla has a lot of money (mostly from Google), and, for example, donates six figure numbers to random political organizations not related to browsers and internet (not EFF)

Here is a breakdown, which was posted on HN few years ago – https://lunduke.locals.com/post/4387539/firefox-money-invest...

I'm gonna say it: we need to build a Thunderbird replacement. It's got too much technical debt. It can't convert new users. We need something that does.

Made an account just to say that I will not support the bloated mess that is Thunderbird that pushes on you a new way to configure it, a new layout and new workflows with every major update, makes it difficult to set up text-only mail and messes up line breaks every so often with no way to properly configure it, which should be developed by Mozilla, which is flush with money but rather spends it on theming their software and executive salaries.

I switched away from Thunderbird about a year ago and couldn't be happier I have made the change.

Mozilla gets like 500 trillion a year from Google, no, I will not give money.

Anyone using Thunderbird was forced to see this, not sure we (or the well-funded corp) need another round.

Sorry, isn't Thunderbird meant to be "true FOSS" and essentially feature complete?

By donating to MZLA Technologies Corporation? Then I guess I'll switch to KMail or Evolution.
