  • The Future of Thunderbird: Why We’re Rebuilding from the Ground Up

  • Cross Platform Email Client
    Mailspring, which is open source, is currently my recommendation for a desktop email client. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago
  • Which email client do you prefer and why?
    Mailspring. Open-source and fully local, but an optional account and optional subscription for premium cloud-based features. Thunderbird was too cluttered and Geary, although I really wanted to like it, was just too minimal. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago

    There is mailspring which I have been using for some time - it has a nice modern interface which imho is much better than thunderbird as well as most of the web interfaces of self hosted email.

  • Future non-Gnome Pop_OS and core apps
    I know for me there is one though it is not specifically "core" but kind of is in a way when you are using a desktop...namely email of all things. Gnome comes with the abomination that is Geary and that thing is way too under powered. For me, I would love it if something like Mailspring (https://getmailspring.com/) was packaged up and made it in as the default email client in the new and improved DE. Modern take... - Source: Reddit / over 1 year ago
