A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

There are no perfect desktop email clients, but Thunderbird is pretty great.
It's a little too powerful for my needs, so I stick to Claws.
I moved away from a desktop client for several years because of Thunderbird staying stuck in the 2010s, but the redesign brought me back into the fold. It's certainly overkill for scanning through subject lines, but compared to having five tabs open ...
Bluemail is decent. But im still always looking for better.
Mailspring is pretty cool :)
Mailspring doesn't handle folders well. When I was testing it, it synced my inbox fine, but none of the folders worked. I even set up a dev environment to try and fix it myself, but couldn't get things working properly.
Correct me if I'm wrong, I very well might be, but doesn't Bluemail do the same thing as the new Outlook for their "instant push" feature? I don't see how else they'd accomplish that.
Ain't that the truth.
Geary is so close to perfect but they depend on Gnome Online accounts which doesn't support O365 so I can use it for everything but my university email.
