First good news from Mozilla since at least a couple of years.
the thunderbird rewrite, the acquisition of k-9, the integration of outlook, the launch of mozilla.social, and saving thunderbird settings on the cloud (formerly firefox account, now mozilla account) are all things happening in the last year.
i think mozilla has been kickin ass.
You're talking about Thunderbird, a project they basically abandoned to the community. Thunderbird survives in spite of Mozilla, not because of it. Meanwhile their main product Firefox is still bleeding users down into the single digit percentages while receiving half a billion a year from Google. It takes a lot of skill to run such a company so deep into the ground.
abandoned?
the podcast and blog indicate you are mistaken.
Mozilla has a podcast?
Edit: Yes they have! https://irlpodcast.org/
Assuming you meant that they talked about this topic in one of their podcasts? Would you mind sharing which episode they did that in?
there is a thunderbird specific one, too
