FYI, Thunderbird 115 is getting released tomorrow (July 11). Right now, if you visit the Thunderbird website [1] or try to look for updates within the application, you won't find this release version available (you can always get the b

In 4), what you describe about sending email to a mailing list is not clear to me. Are you saying that the mailing list will have a public key that’s used for encryption (by the original sender) and that the mailing list software will decry

I fully agree that this is all about a permanent lock-in (as mentioned in my other comment, though not in as much detail). It doesn’t seem like companies bother much. As long as there are some “this is free”, “this is cheap” and “this just

Yes, I know there’s Owl as well as some other (non-Thunderbird) options. But at the higher level, the teams defining what protocols to allow or disallow also manage the policies. That’s what I meant by Microsoft (influencing and) locking in

Sadly, Thunderbird is becoming (or has become) a non-option in companies that use Outlook365/Microsoft365. Microsoft seems to have been quite effective in disabling IMAP and SMTP as a default in these tenants and scaring companies that

Tangential caution to anyone wanting to try Pixelfed. Host your own instance and post on it. The official pixelfed.social is no better than Instagram in banning accounts for no reason except that the main developer of Pixelfed (who is also

I agree, and not just for this reason. Apple isn’t the kind to add more ports unless absolutely necessary. A video input would limit the user’s ability to move around, and is not something Apple would do. I’m sure there are people at Apple

It won’t have a very high price, for one. Other than that, it won’t have screen resolutions as high as this, nor have as many cameras and mics as the Pro version. It may not have some features in the software either. It helps to think about

Very quickly, the roadmap page you linked to seems to be available only for GitHub users (and probably people who are also given permissions on your repo?). I only see a long list of “You can’t see this item” cards.

Even Apple’s own applications break the “it’s an app and not a window” paradigm in many instances. Without trying, there’s no way to tell if clicking on the close button will quit the app or just close that window even for apps that only us

I thought I’d take a quick look to see what your app offers. Here’s some feedback: * On launch, it asks for Camera permission. I declined and the app crashed. Next launch, it opens to the blank screen with a (scan) icon and an Edit option,

Effectively, MS has bulldozed companies that use Microsoft365 into using its own proprietary protocols and applications (Outlook). It scares companies into not enabling IMAP (even with OAuth2).

I disagree. Most people want a GUI or browser based tool that works as a CMS (even if a limited one). They just wouldn’t be able to handle the 99.9% of static site generators that work on the command line and need the user to learn specific
