From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I just can’t find a decent email client that looks like it’s from the last 20 years. Geary and Evolution both appear to be pretty modern but something about using Gmail with a Yubikey just doesn’t work and neither of them will connect to my account. Both on Fedora and OpenSUSE. Thunderbird works but it’s so old fashioned and Betterbird doesn’t look much better. What’s everyone else using?

The webmail interface and the app of my email provider (Tuta).

Thunderbird is very nice and lightweight compared with outlook. Picks up email settings more quicker and is much simpler to use than outlook. Recommended to all my clients.

Thunderbird on my pc and the default ios app on my phone for my non proton mail email accounts I just use the proton mail website when I use my proton email

I know it's not an answer you expect but I just use the official web client. I hate how there's 2+ sidebars and a lot of features I don't need in standalone clients. I just need inbox, spam, trash and probably search.

Tuta Mail for personal

Thunderbird/K-9 (mobile) for my work's gmail since the gmail website is garbage

[–] timestatic@feddit.org 1 points 3 months ago

Thunderbird with the Proton Mail Bridge on desktop, Proton Mail client on mobile although I'd prefer to have all my mails on K9 since I have multiple mail accounts and haven't fully migrated from gmail.

Vivaldi M3 on desktop, K9 on mobile.

Thunderbird, k-9, and aerc

[–] poinck@lemm.ee 1 points 4 months ago

I recently (months ago) switched back to Evolution from Thunderbird. I used both of them several years. I had a webmail phase in between. Thunderbird has/had enoying issues displaying mail threads.

For calender I switched to gnome-calendar, because it looks very modern.

i still have to use windows occasionally, and just run thunderbird on that. When on linux i use aerc because i way prefer terminal applications in general, but also i am lazy and the setup took about three seconds vs. mutt which requires a bit more work.
