> with good extension support
Except that Thunderbird has been actively holding back its own extension support, diverting people to the silly "WebExtensions" and making it more difficult to load and run regular extensions.
(In Firefox it's even worse - it seems you can't load regular extensions at all these days.)
> Let's just face the fact here: email is dying. Once it was one of the most important tools for communicating on the Internet, now days for majority of people, it's just something comes with a Google/Microsoft/Apple account.
It is not dying, but rather - powerful commercial interests are trying to assassinate it. These companies love to control your private data, analyze it, sell it, pass it on to the government (Snowden revelations), and use it to market stuff to you. We all need to make a concerted effort to change this state of affairs.
