The future? I didn't know it had a past! I ignore everything Mozilla except Firefox and Thunderbird, and I'm slowly quitting Thunderbird.
Going to try to move to Seamonkey for everything soon.
- neilv 3y agoThat's wild, that SeaMonkey is seeing updates. Netscape had some good ideas about Internet clients early on. Do you think SeaMonkey has the right developer resources to wrangle that code base for security?
- ByQuyzzy 3y agoI pray that developers leave the project alone as much as possible. Too much love is what is bloating Firefox. At least FF is ripping out their Rust remnants.
- dale_glass 3y agoI thought Thunderbird was doing better as of late? They had some interesting presentations at FOSDEM, and apparently are now on their own.
- addicted 3y agoYeah, Thunderbird is finally getting better. They’re gonna ruffle some feathers as they ditch unmainrained, and unmentionable functionality that has been languishing in the code base for over a decade and currently serve little purpose other than being a security nightmare, but they’ve been improving Thunderbird significantly, especially in terms of speed and performance.

- ByQuyzzy 3y agoThat's why I'm leaving - I use Usenet.
- ryukoposting 3y agoI'm just beginning to use Thunderbird, and I really like it. It's lighter and less noisy than Outlook, and far less annoying than having a gmail tab open at all times.
