is it new? i swear it didn't exist a few months ago when i was looking for a mail client

[–] blibla@slrpnk.net 39 points 1 year ago (2 children)

it is, it's basically just like k9 mail atm which is what i would suggest anyway

K9 and Thunderbird for Android are now the same app with different branding

[–] rand_alpha19@moist.catsweat.com 13 points 1 year ago (3 children)

So if I already use K-9 Mail, should I bother? Does anything set it apart yet?

[–] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 24 points 1 year ago (2 children)

K9 is getting rebranded as Thunderbird, if you update it it show up with the new logo

[–] brisk@aussie.zone 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Not quite, they are and will continue to be the same app and code base with distinct branding.

The rebranding in F-droid recently was a mistake that has been fixed.

[–] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

Ah, I didn't know that!

[–] BlastboomStrice@mander.xyz 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Oh that explains why it changed the app page name back to k-9

Oh well

Thanks:)

Damn, alright haha, I completely missed that news. Good for them.

Thunderbird is blue and has opt-out telemetry.

That is it right now.

[–] blibla@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

[–] GargleBlaster@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

I just started using thunderbird for Android. Coincidence? I think so

For the lazy: Why do women seem to be more attracted to me as soon as I'm getting attention from other girls its like they know somehow

[–] flicker@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thank you for this. I was dying of curiosity but too drunk to do my own research. You're a saint.

adblocker in a mail client?

Oh right I thought it was a broswer

[–] Lemongrab@lemmy.one 5 points 1 year ago

That is Thunderbird on Desktop, which uses Firefox ESR. Thunderbird on Android uses K-9 Mail's codebase.

[–] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

its developed by Mozilla

I tried Thunderbird for android, it's too barebones right now for me. For the time being, I'm sticking with Samsung Mail, along side Proton Mail

If Thunderbird was on iOS I’d switch in a heartbeat.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I actually don't use it. AFAIK Thunderbird doesn't work with proton and no way do I want to get the E-Mail from my university (there are a lot of emails that arent important) on my phone.

[–] tb_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

On desktop there's an SMTP mail bridge you can install to use Proton Mail with another application. No such thing on mobile, though.

[–] Crow@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thunderbird is native on Linux?

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What? I never mentioned Linux. But yeah, Thunderbird is native on Linux.

[–] renegadespork@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think they thought you meant “proton” the compatibility used to run Windows games on Linux, instead of ProtonMail.

Ahhhhh, that explains it.
