We won’t be adopting the Firefox Terms of Use for Thunderbird.
Finally some good news
title should read adopt*
Lol my dyslexic brain read it as adopt anyways.
Ironic how the typo directly inverted the meaning.
will not adopt = will not use the new Firefox terms
will not adapt = will use the new Firefox terms exactly, without any rewording
But with some minor changes, like Firefox -> Thunderbird.

Well, IIRC, TB isn’t developed by Mozilla. They just “host” it.

They do. Well, I should say Thunderbird is also under the Foundation, but is developed by a separate subsidiary Corp (MZLA Tech Corp) than Firefox (Mozilla Corp).

Which is one more stupid thing from Mozilla. Imagine if, 10 years ago, they had made a combo of: Firefox, Thunderbird, email hosting, maybe some kind of online office thing and a drive, Sync… That could have been the ultimate productivity package for “Office” stuff inside one convenient subscription.
Instead we now have Office 365, Google Docs, and nothing more.

So a bit like extending Mozilla Application Suite aka Seamonkey instead of focusing on standalone products?

I want separate apps that are really good at what they do, not a bunch of apps that kinda work together and are just okay. So I would much rather they focus on one thing and services around it. Such as:
Everything should be opt-in and privacy centered, and all of that can be browser extensions.

Don’t give them subscription ideas, even mentioning subscriptions is dangerous!

Add some better CEO/management to the mix, but yes.
