Ah yes the move from software developer to service provider. Smells like en(shit)tification.

Lets hope they do this right unlike everyone else.

Smells like en(shit)tification.

What are the parenthesis here for? Without it would be "smells like entification"??

Smells like shit...

Smells like (en)shit(tification) looks kinda shit.

I’m cynical and already looking at forks

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Good for you, but those forks too owe their existence (among other things) to the donations (and down the road subscriptions) to Thunderbird.

Swapped to waterfox a while ago. Copied the profile folder over and boom, done, no more mozilla corp in my browser.

That’s a Firefox fork, not a thunderbird fork.

Figured this was talking about ditching Mozilla altogether, as this news is about a web service, not a new anti-feature in Thunderbird.
