Goodbye K-9 Mail

Looking back on 15 years of working on K-9 Mail.

Leaving for his own mental well-being, sounds like on good terms.

    Fantastic person.

    Funny that the post closes with “thank you”. So kind. I depend on K-9 Mail daily, so “thank you” from me doesn’t cut the amount of indebtedness and gratitude I have to this person. Thank you! 🙏

    Realistically, permanently walking away from K-9 Mail never was an option in the past. There was no one else to take over as a maintainer. It would have most likely meant the end of the project. K-9 Mail was always too important to me to let that happen. But this is no longer an issue. There’s now a whole team behind the project and me stepping away no longer is an existential threat to the app.

    Good on Mozilla for helping Thunderbird continue!
