Better dark mode. A global switch for threading and sorting! Monthly updates are ready for manual installs from the Thunderbird website. We show you how to make the change (and why some Linux users will need to wait) and all the features in 136.0

I've always been a #thunderbird, but decided to try #geary.

No reason. Just mixing it up a bit.

Last week we had our first! Thunderbird + Rust office hours with our back-end developer @brendan and Sr. DevRel Engineer @linuxflower giving us a great introduction to the past, present, and future of oxidization in Thunderbird. Watch the recording on our @tilvids channel and find out how to get involved!

Ich habe heute an @mozilla gespendet, um dabei zu helfen, das Internet zurückzuerobern. Machst du auch mit? Gemeinsam können wir dafür sorgen, dass das Internet offen und für alle zugänglich bleibt.

Okay, so #Firefox is increasingly enshittified, thanks to choices at #Mozilla. But there are forks of Firedox that can fix a lot of those problems.

Mozilla also does #Thunderbird, but I don't see as much talk about it. How much has it been affected? Are there privacy-focused forks of Thunderbird I should know about?

Do the recent changes to #Firefox apply to #Thunderbird as well? #enshittification #tech

After two decades as a faithful #mozilla user, I will be discontinuing use of #firefox and transitioning to @librewolf as an experimental alternative, possibly adopting it as my permanent solution depending on how it goes.

I'll evaluate #thunderbird alternatives after I complete the browser migration.

Die aktuelle Weltlage lässt mich überlegen, #gmail zu verlassen. Hat jemand Vorschläge die auch mit #Thunderbird out of the box funktionieren und keinen eigenen Client (wie Proton oder Tuta) erfordern?

EDIT:
Es ist mailbox.org geworden - ganz herzlichen Dank an alle!

Watching my home directory sync to my file server as part of my backup process, I noticed that #Thunderbird has a file called AlternateServices.bin and my first thought was, "We switched to Common Worship in 2000."

Völlig unabhängig von #unplugtrump (aber da zahlt es natürlich auch ein) habe ich endlich den Umzug von #windows auf #linux vollzogen. Für Ängstliche: #linuxmint oder #ubuntucinnamon sehen aus und fühlen sich an, wie Windows. #firefox bleibt #firefox, #thunderbird bleibt #thunderbird, #libreoffice habe ich auch zuvor schon genutzt, lediglich am Umstieg von #lightroom auf #darktable (oder dann doch #rawtherapee?) habe ich noch zu knabbern und:
Kennt jemand ein vernünftiges Banking Programm (a la WISO Mein Geld)? Bei #firefly bekomme ich FinTS nicht vernünftig zum Laufen, #hibiscus funktioniert, ist aber sehr basic und optisch eher letztes Jahrhundert...

When you have an obsession with Music and FreeTube at the same time!
