How to install the new Thunderbird v102?
There is an unofficial AppImage. I have another system I use as a test bed, and I set it up on Manjaro and and LM20-Cinnamon using a couple of throwaway email addresses. I played with it a bit - it works, and I did not experience (or expect) any dependency issues. I am not entirely thrilled with the "overhaul." It appears to be stable enough for regular use, but I cannot and will not claim I gave it a thorough test drive. Me? I will stick with the supported version. https://github.com/srevinsaju/Thunderbird-AppImage

Thunderbird 102 Released: A Serious Upgrade to Your Communication
Bypassing all the arguments about hows and whys...
There is an AppImage. It just works.

Try it.
And yes, IMHO, the Thunderbird organisation should distribute it.

Thunderbird 102 Released: A Serious Upgrade to Your Communication
I’m still stuck pre78 because I like to use an external editor. https://github.com/exteditor/exteditor/issues/74

Mozilla bug 13474: external processes/filters for textareas (2002)
How I got to this? By asking Google "Thunderbird edit reply in external editor", then I've followed the bread crumbs:
=> <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259633> (18 years old), duplicate of,
=> <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=241583> (18 years old), duplicate of,
=> <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13474> (23 years old), bug still open...
BTW, I used to use `It's all text`, the Firefox addon that allowed one to edit text-areas in external editors, but it broke a few years ago... (Coincidentally or not, that was the time I've also dropped using MoinMoin and other wikis... Also coincidence or not, that was the time I've started using Chromium more...)
The other recommended addon is `exteditor`, but it seems that, just like `It's all text`, it also doesn't work in latest Thunderbird: <https://github.com/exteditor/exteditor/issues/74>...
Is it that hard to ask, in 2022 when we have so many good text editors, to be able to use one instead of the built-in ones?
Perhaps nobody wants this feature? Searching the Mozilla Bugzilla instance shows another story...
What are some alternatives?
