I've never heard of anyone using Thunderbird, but I hear about other Firefox users all the time.

I want a new email place. FUCK GMAIL 💥 FUCK GOOGLE! I had to use MS Office for work once, it was okay. Better than Gmail by a mile. But you seriously think I'm gonna use Microsoft? Well, what else is there? If Thunderbird is alright I think I should give it a try.

I also need to find a way to make a new not-gmail email domain. No idea where to go for that. Uh, does Thunderbird have anything?

Thunderbird is fine as a mail client. It doesn’t provide any email service, though.

For email service, Proton and Fastmail are top choices. Proton requires a “bridge” app in order to use clients like Thunderbird. On mobile, Proton only works via the Proton app.

As for clients, again, Thunderbird is fine. Betterbird is a better choice if you like Thunderbird but wish it weren’t so rough around the edges. If you are on Linux, I actually prefer Evolution to Betterbird/Thunderbird.
