Like the legend of the phoenix, we're resurrecting Mozilla Send, an end-to-end encrypted file share service, and bringing it under our wings as Thunderbird Send. In this clip from S1E5 of the ThunderCast, developer Chris Aquino gives us a sneak peak of the new - wait, old - er, reborn project! Learn how #Thunderbird Send will help you overcome your file upload woes, respect your privacy, safeguard against abuse, and hopefully change your #email experience for the better.
@thunderbird so last time it was killed because it was used for CSAM, warez, etc and it was impossible to regulate. What's changed?
@msfjarvis @thunderbird verified how? Video is a shit way to announce and explain this
@falken @thunderbird well, it's in the video. They've also said it in the replies https://mastodon.online/@thunderbird/111257758686629056
@msfjarvis @thunderbird maybe just post all the details as text instead of a video and then dribbling out the meat in replies
@falken @msfjarvis That's a fair criticism! Going forward we'll aim to post podcast clips and the text in a blog post at the same time. 🎙️ 📄
@falken @msfjarvis Thanks for the feedback on that. Just to let you know, this is not the first unveiling of this idea. https://www.howtogeek.com/thunderbird-mail-is-reviving-an-old-mozilla-service/
We're also writing up a blog post today.
@thunderbird @msfjarvis looking forward to the detail in that
@falken @thunderbird They're planning to require the sender to have a subscription for the service.
