Here is a screen-shot of latest Thunderbird (ESR) Email client: https://www.thunderbird.net/media/img/thunderbird/new/screens/mail-screen.png
Note that -
Operated by MZLA Technologies Corporation, a subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation, Thunderbird is an independent, community-driven project that is managed and overseen by the Thunderbird Council, which is elected by the Thunderbird community.
Thunderbird 128 ESR has a really nice/modern look. Besides, if you don’t like the default look, you have plenty of themes to use with.
Remember when a new major version meant something major changed?
Was nice as it prompted me to go read change notes. Now I have no clue when it’s a collection of minor things or has actual major changes unless I go read every set of change notes.
Now-a-days most of the (browser) software projects are following agile mode and not waterfall mode delivery.
It’s really helpful and quite fun.
Thanks OP for sharing.
I’m currently sticking to production branch (550) which seems to be more performant for daily usage.

I also wish to setup but this doesn’t look like the official repo 😕
I access my Vaultwarden server via Cloudflared tunnel while I’m away from home network.
Setting up Nvidia runtime for rootless Docker containers in Linux.
Resolving port :53 conflict between AdGuardHome (rootless) docker container and Systemd-Resolved.
I also noticed the same trend here and elsewhere as well.
More important question is - how this nitter instance is still working!!
shh…it’s a spyware and adware!
What Firefox provides here:
A connector to LLM providers.
Accelerators (context menu options).
From a coding perspective, this should ideally be a very lightweight functionality.
This feature is very analogous to options to add a search engine, and also to provide accelerators via context menu.
While it can be done via third-party or Official Mozilla add-ons, but (to me) it still makes sense to have it part of the product.
If you’re using a VPN at the OS or browser level, just like any other traffic, your query to the LLM service will be routed via the VPN. That VPN could be any VPN of your choice - Firefox VPN, Mullvad, or Proton etc.
The only problem is that most LLMs require a profile/login to work with. In such cases, using a VPN will be useless, as the LLM server will know who you are.
It’s just a plain integration with 3rd-party or self-hosted LLM service.
I’m not sure if Mozilla will make money from this feature in any way.
Have you read anything about it anywhere?
It’s just an integration with LLM services and not AI baked-in the browser code. You can even self-host any such service (Ollama) and integrate Firefox with it. That will make sure your query is not leaving your network.
GB or MB?
