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.

Does anyone know where you can get the Thunderbird branded package?

The TB branded version is in beta and they are not releasing it until the branding is further along. Allegedly if you are using K9, there will be a migration tool to move to the TB branded app when released.

No I think you will need to reinstall. But as you can export your settings this is not a very big deal.

Interesting, they renamed their org from thundernest to thunderbird. Makes more sense tbh.

I changes the URL to this in Obtainium and removed the old one. It seems they are still not changing the App ID as updates worked normally, but that version should get the redesign soon.

If I understood the article correctly, the Thunderbird app is not released, yet. They said they are working on getting it released.
