Mozilla Thunderbird 128 ESR Is Now Available for Download, Here’s What’s New

posted by Marius Nestor on Jul 12, 2024,
updated Jul 17, 2024

Probably the biggest highlight of Mozilla Thunderbird 128 (codename Nebula) is ESR (Extended Support Release) support, which means that the Thunderbird 128 branch will receive updates for at least a couple of years. This means that GNU/Linux distros that rely on the ESR branch will finally be able to upgrade, such as Debian.

KDE Frameworks 6.4 also improves Breeze folder icons to no longer turn all white or all black when selected in various contexts when using a custom accent color, implements Breeze styling for movable splitters in QML apps, which leads to resizable sidebars in places where you’d expect for sidebars to be resizable, adds a generic translate icon, adds non-symbolic base version of network-wireless-bluetooth icons, and adds support for the newly introduced ColorScheme-Accent.
