is it new? i swear it didn't exist a few months ago when i was looking for a mail client

[–] blibla@slrpnk.net 33 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

K9 and Thunderbird for Android are now the same app with different branding

So if I already use K-9 Mail, should I bother? Does anything set it apart yet?

K9 is getting rebranded as Thunderbird, if you update it it show up with the new logo

[–] brisk@aussie.zone 14 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Not quite, they are and will continue to be the same app and code base with distinct branding.

The rebranding in F-droid recently was a mistake that has been fixed.

Thunderbird is blue and has opt-out telemetry.

That is it right now.
