I waited for Thunderbird to get good for so long, I ended migrating to emClient… Looks great, but I don’t think I feel like resetting all my devices and systems again
I hope they fixed the performance as well. I have several crashes per day on debian with version 102.11.0
When starting it I have to wait for a bit before I click anything, otherwise it crashes. It also 100%s one CPU core regularly, I don’t know if that is supposed to happen. It also sometimes does not show the content of certain emails. All that said it’s still the best mail client I’ve used so far.
I might try it as it’s looking a lot better. I really hoped they would have implemented bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=847989 by now as it’s the reason I use Geary currently.
I usually setup a profile somwhere on a spare drive and sync all my mail into it, just in case. Forgot about a yahoo account i had a few years ago and lost it with all it’s content. Never again.
Loving it so far! Anyone know how to change the font or font size when you view the message body as plain text rather than HTML? All the font settings I could find in the gui are not changing it.
I don’t like the new logo; it looks mean. The previous logo showed a charming bird that delivered my mail, the new one portrays a bird of prey clutching a letter, it will probably bite you if you try to retrieve the letter.
Looks very gnome. Sadly I use KDE so it still looks like a foreign object, just like Firefox. I want native app to look like native apps, is that too much to ask?
Let’s say it’s a lot to ask, especially when the app also needs to be crossplatform and behave functionally the same on all platforms.
Maybe it could be done, in theory, with a lot of work, but it’s definitely not at all an easy task, especially for a project that seemed dead and buried just a few years ago and with just a handful of volunteer devs.
Most crossplatform apps that I can think of don’t really look like native apps in any system. I’m thinking of Chromium, VSCode, Discord, Steam etc.
The only one I can think of right now is Whatsapp, but I’m pretty sure they actually developed three independent apps and maintain all three, for Android, iOS and Windows. They all look and feel like native apps because they are. Please tell me if I’m wrong.
Still, you can’t expect all, or even most developers to do something like that, especially when you start including all the different DEs and themes and so on.
Eh… it’s pretty, I guess, but it’s just too “appified” for power users. My Thunderbird UI is festooned with useful buttons and menus for quick access, and I like the old style of having elements tightly spaced to maximize contextual awareness.
