I tried Thunderbird but it’s got a lot going for it. I just want something simple and minimal
Preferably a native app rather than something built with electron
I use Arch Linux
What do you mean? Thunderbird is the default mail application on Windows for me. I didn’t even know there is something else.
Maybe Geary is what you are looking for?
This doesn’t really answer your question, but you may want to consider hanging on to Thunderbird given massive UI upgrade that’s coming very soon for it: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2023/07/our-fastest-most-beautiful-release-ever-thunderbird-115-supernova-is-here/
Ooooh. That looks good. It’s going to take a while to get used to a new Firefox design after using the same ui for 15 years 😅
Found that in order to move some things round (menu bar for example) the user has to go in and tweak css stylesheets. This is not a smooth, user friendly experience.
Currently looking for alternative clients because of the changes. I have my reasons.
It’s released already, just not in flathub yet.
Thank goodness you told us you use Arch
Oh, i saw your comment and tried really hard not to interact, but i really have to tell you something.
I use arch btw
Maybe you want to try MailSpring, It is very customisable, and there are many different pre-configured layouts to choose from
- built with electron
Didn’t you read the ToS? Those words are considered as hate speech in every Linux communities.
Try Neomutt.

Evolution is nice https://flathub.org/apps/org.gnome.Evolution
As a funny coincidence, your post showed on my home page 2 posts apart from this one:
https://lemmy.world/post/2021471
(Microsoft forcing migration from the default mail app)
This sucks :(
I tried their new pwa app and its trash
ive been using mailspring, pretty happy with it.
But mailspring uses electron tho
Geary?
I’m happy with Evolution.
*BTW
Mailspring is not native, but looks more or less native (depending on why you prefer a native app, this might work).
