To a large extent it already has. Email usage has been declining for many years. The largest person-to-person communications medium today is Facebook Messenger. (Which has all manner of privacy implications, don't get me wrong; I'm not endorsing this change.) Email is a diminishing market, and email clients like Thunderbird are grabbing a diminishing share of a diminishing market. The only good news is that since the entire system is open-source, it's going to be harder to kill than Rasputin. And as long as Thunderbird's around, we're going to be, too. :) _______________________________________________ enigmail-users mailing list enigmail-users@enigmail.net To unsubscribe or make changes to your subscription click here: https://admin.hostpoint.ch/mailman/listinfo/enigmail-users_enigmail.net
