I am a [community](https://pontoon.mozilla.org/contributors/bogomil/) [contributor](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/user_profile?user_id=359734) and a long-time user of [Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/). I want to share with you my vision of what Thunderbird was, is, and will be in the future. Many people are familiar with the interface and the fact that it allows you to manage your email, but this is not why I decided to spend time improving it. I'll cover topics like: - What can any FOSS project learn from the history of Thunderbird? - Why is it run as a for-profit entity? - How you can contribute and the reasons why. - Thunderbird for Android - Web Services around Thunderbird? - Where you can view statistics and learn about how and why we use telemetry. - How do we protect your privacy and data sovereignty?
