Textual words from them:
It’s our first step towards a more modern, more beautiful, and more customizable Thunderbird experience. We think you’re going to love it, and we are endlessly grateful for all of your support throughout the years 💙
I waited for Thunderbird to get good for so long, I ended migrating to emClient... Looks great, but I don't think I feel like resetting all my devices and systems again
Are there any plans for tray icon and desktop notification support? Those features are the only reason I would run a desktop email client, without them I'll just use a browser. I know Birdtray exists but I can't get it to work with flatpak Thunderbird.
The desktop notifications are built in now. As for tray, I'm trying out systray-x.
Looking forward to trying it. It has been over a decade since I last used it.
Anyone know if Google Tasks can be integrated?
Yup, I sync my Office/Teams notifications for work along my Nextcloud tasks for our home checklists 👍
I might try it as it's looking a lot better. I really hoped they would have implemented https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=847989 by now as it's the reason I use Geary currently.
That looks awesome!
Does anyone know if they've fixed performance? Thunderbird feels really slow to navigate and fetch messages.
This looks great. Would be awesome if i could host this in a docmer container so i dont need to manage installs on clients.
That's what Ansible is for. Stuffing a gui app in a container still leaves you with the job of actually having to deploy it, anyway.
Good idea, ill look into that. Been meaning to learn ansible for some time now anyways.
I want to love it but it's still ugly / dated looking. It's like the Linux of email clients.
It's got some nice icons so that's a plus, but I think it's the font weight and sizes that throw it off, it feels "thick"
I would need JMAP support before I would consider a native email client again.
JMAP might be nice but sadly there are neither servers nor clients that support it outside of Fastmail.
I know - it’s a chicken and egg thing.
Oh thank cthulu, I've been waiting for this for ages. I'm so glad Thunderbird is getting some much needed love.
That definitely looks different. I assume they still haven't put the system tray functionality back?
It's well past 15:00 EST and the version I get when downloading is 102.13.0 for some reason.
Edit: solved by itself after some minutes, probably a CDN thing.
I've tried Thunderbird and wasn't convinced.. My work life is basically email, and I've tried several email apps over the years, a lot more than most people. I've found Postbox on desktop and Spark on mobile to be the magic pair for me so far. Unless Postbox fails me, I don't think I'll bother trying anything else anytime soon... Though I'm open to suggestions for mobile, since there's room for improvement with Spark.
Oh that's cool.
I'm definitely very boomer in that I still prefer to get my email via Thunderbird rather than through a web browser!
Just finished setting up thunderbird. The new design looks amazing! Although it has some UX problems, I hope they'll get resolved along the way.
Overall, pleased, and migrated all of my inboxes to it!
Can single-key shortcuts finally be changed/disabled? I can't count the number of times I thought I had focus in a different element or even different application and accidentally archived, marked as spam or otherwise hid several e-mails just by a typing a single word.
It took one release for Thunderbird to go from a pretty ancient looking program to one of the best looking ones out there.
Loving it so far! Anyone know how to change the font or font size when you view the message body as plain text rather than HTML? All the font settings I could find in the gui are not changing it.
