If you want to see a better world, start with your own choices and actions. Support causes and products that are good for the world. Be kind to others and seek to be a positive point in others' lives. It all matters, and has an effect. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Good afternoon, Brussels! Thank you to everyone who came out and tuned in to @ryanleesipes on the #FOSDEM Main Track this morning. We've got some great pics of his talk from Team Thunderbird, and we've loved seeing your pics! Keep them coming this weekend!

A couple of my colleagues (and friends) and I @mozthunderbird made a podcast about Thunderbird and open source software. Check it out!

So, as of September 14th, I became a father to these two beautiful girls. I finally have gotten enough sleep to share the news!
Putting a fireplace in the living room of my new house is, probably, the best decision I've ever made.
Spent the morning terminating CAT6 cable and putting up my access points. You can now get near gigabit speeds out to the web throughout my house.

Making Thunderbird better, every day. You're welcome.
Thunderbird "Supernova" update!
On the left: the current App menu from Thunderbird 102.
On the right: the improved App menu that will be in next year's Thunderbird "Supernova."
You'll notice less to scroll through, new icons, and more thoughtful organization of menu items.

The Thunderbird team is working on some amazing stuff to improve calendar management and finding times to meet with others.
You will be surprised and impressed.
That's all the teasing for today.
Decided today that the next Thunderbird stable release will not be referred to as the arbitrary version number "115".
Instead, we will henceforth call it by its codename "Supernova".
So, folks, the 2023 release of Thunderbird is "Thunderbird Supernova"
It's a great, customizable email experience that allows me to work the way I want to. Even if that way is weird.
We completed one of the parts of the redesign for Thunderbird Supernova (115). An updated App Menu (you may know it as the hamburger menu). You can see it in Nightly.
It's great to have one piece done, and @micahilbery did a great job on it!

Protect yourself against spamming and spoofing automatically with Thunderbird!
On paternity leave. I shouldn't be touching anything to do with work, but... during naps I am hacking on something lots of Thunderbird users have been asking for.
Let's see if this bears fruit. 😉

Experience the future of Thunderbird by running Beta!
(Nice side-effect: it's a GREAT way to help improve Thunderbird for everyone.)
With v106 Beta now available, it's the perfect time to share some resources to help you get started.

Achieving one of my goals. #Outlook being compared to @mozthunderbird - and Thunderbird wins.
This will keep happening as we get further along our roadmap.
