I am ridiculously excited to announce my new role: Marketing Manager for #Thunderbird!

I'll be helping out with comms on social media (including here at Mastodon), crafting content for the website, and handling the Thunderbird newsletter.

Here's to making email better together!

Congrats!

I'll be honest, I thought Thunderbird had been abandoned ages ago...

it's still alive and kicking! And it has a full-time development team with some really awesome stuff coming in the next year.

Mostly UI could be more intuitive. I watch my wife get wrapped around the axel too much, and she is doing simple stuff.
The RSS interface is mostly experiment-till-it-works for me.

I really do love having a great, cross-platform (Linux, Mac) mail client, so Thunderbird for the win.

Glad to hear it! I don't currently use a desktop mail client, but might have to look into Thunderbird

If you decide to jump in, grab the Beta version. LOTS of visual improvements there.

It seems to be a fairly common misconception, don't worry! I'm here to change that.

Congratulations Jason.

We suppose our question is what can Thunderbird do to limit their use of Amazon Web Services? Last we checked Thunderbird relies far too much on Amazon servers. It had an aggressive phone home feel, with the firewall screaming Amazon, Amazon Amazon.

To what extent can Amazon be purged from the stack?

Ok, I have to ask... did you have the same surname before getting into marketing, or was that a rebrand? Either way, it's the perfect name for someone evangelizing for a great FOSS project!

Are there any plans to fix Thunderbird's broken plain text mode?
