Yes that is what we are left with.
Mozilla bought k9 and killed it, sad day for users.

No that will not work, users already opened an issue and asked to remove the spyware and Mozilla closed it:
https://github.com/thunderbird/thunderbird-android/issues/8199
Mozilla has gone full evil already, they took the only full featured, completely privacy respecting email app on the platform and killed it and they did it sneakily as well just like they did with PPA on firefox.
Luckily K9 in its existing version is fully functional. Users who care about privacy can continue to use K9.
Mozilla added hundreds of classes of spyware to K9 in their mozilla.telemetry.glean.* (which previous to Mozilla’s involvement was spyware free) and rebranded it “Thunderbird” and now advertise it as “privacy-focused” wow…

K9 is not Thunderbird. There is a critical difference.
K9 is a private respecting app which contains no malicious user tracking telemetry, this app does.
It won’t be allowed at fdroid its full of Mozilla’s spyware.
Yes all they did was take an existing private app and add their invasive telemetry spyware to it. How insulting.
“Privacy focused” how can Mozilla lie like that? Mozilla must have a pretty dim view of users if they think they can take an existing private email app, add their disgusting user tracking code and advertise their new changes as “private”.
Mozilla took over the K9 project and stuffed it full of intrusive telemetry just like firefox and Thunderbird on the desktop.
K9 has no telemetry, tracking or spyware, this version does.
PPA for your mobile email client, coming your way.
Pass I will not use this client.
“The last note taking app you should ever need”
…oh BTW there is no mobile app.
What a joke.
Does this phone have an SD card and headphone jack?
If not then I’m not buying it.
This launcher is not avaliable on fdroid and chock full if google’s spyware telemetry.
Why cares if he used ASOP or not no one should be using this launcher.
