MODERATORS
In F-Droid (not sure about Play or other app stores) K9 v8.0 (and above I guess) is now listed as Thunderbird Beta for Testers. I and possibly others thought that the K9 version of the app would keep it's branding all the way through, including it's listing name or title in various app stores. Perhaps it wont or perhaps it's a listing error. We'll see.
Its an f-droid metadata issue that the team is already aware of https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues/8478
Yeah, I thought so, too, but I got that from here on Lemmy, so maybe we both read the same misinformed comment.
I think, it's cool, though, that the official Thunderbird app can be published on F-Droid.
