Oh shit maybe we'll see someone companies switch to an alternative instead of paying microshit more money
This is for the personal licenses, not business or enterprise.

I keep seeing posts by NextCloud on Mastodon. Has anyone had any experience using those guys?
Nextcloud is decent but it depends on what you want. Personally, I'd never use it again due to performance reasons but it's a decent platform for cloud editing and stuff.
I switched to Syncthing for file management across my devices. With it, I can sync my Joplin notes. It's all I need in life. It was also easier to set up than a Nextcloud instance.
Yeah. So it's
right? I forget the name of that add-on.
No, that's not it. I thought it was Open-Xchange; yeah, that's it. But it's only web-based, and not Tbird-based. Let's ask Co-pilot again:
THERE it is.
But I learned there's a second alternative, so that's cool. See? Co-pilot has value!
is there a thunderbird equivalent that looks like it was made after 1992?
Zentyal replaces windows server. It has active directory, file server, print server, domain controller and mail server, all in a way compatible with Microsofts products, but it's Linux. I worked with it many years ago and it did what it says on the tin. I haven't worked with newer versions.
In this case the AI is kinda wrong. It's not a Thunderbird replacement in any way, rather an OWA replacement and Exchange alternative. You could use Thunderbird to connect to it probably.
What you could use is the Thunderbird extension TbSync, or Owl. Both work, but TbSync is free.
Like using Edge to download Firefox, I approve
