Almost everyone in here has a complaint about thunderbird. The blog is about the struggle of maintaining it as-is, much less refactoring or adding features. They take the time to explain some background, some of the struggles and the "why" of their decision to do a rebuild. Reliance on other software, years of decentralized development, having a small team to do it. And yet everyone is just shitting on this piece as if the team has no idea what they're doing. I don't normally do metacommentary, but this conversation is mind boggling.
