When I first saw the link, I thought, “Oh cool! A new platform using the Thunderbird name!”

Then I realized it was Mozilla’s app. And just like that, the excitement was gone.

I try not to bad-mouth products, but Thunderbird and I did NOT get along. Clunky integrations, a painful Gmail connection, and basic functionality issues made it one of the worst email clients I’ve ever used.

Of course, I’m also annoyingly picky about my tools, so maybe it’s a me problem.

Interesting. So far, Thunderbird has been the only mail client that "just works" for me. Then again, I self host my email & so no weird Gmail or Outlook bullshit.
