Let's fucking goooooo
Was waiting for this to move off the Outlook app
Also, for those wanting simple updates, check Obtainium
~~Speaking off, I'm still having issues adding it, since it still get confused by the k9 original repo origin, even if i try to filter the pre-release .apk's with the thunderbird name.~~ My bad, still kept the k9-mail repo instead of the thunderbird fork.
It has a new id so you will need to add it as a new app if you have K-9 installed
Actually, you were right. The issue for me is that the original k9-mail repo did also released the current beta thunderbird version (and i think, one with still the k9 branding if needed). I was trying to switch to it via that repo, and didn't noticed the thunderbird fork listed the in the repo. There's no changes, outside of the releases only being thunderbird branded outside of all the previous k9-mail ones. If you were on k-9 mail, and want to switch to it on Obtainium, manually install the new version and mugrate your settings to it. And once it's all done, remove the k9-mail repo from Obtainium, and add that thunderbird one.
Weird, for me adding the url and checking 'Include prereleases' was enough
For anybody having trouble with K-9 Mail and Thunderbird being in the same Release section, add this to Filter APKs by Regular Expression:
To get only Thunderbird Updates: ^thunderbird-.*.apk$
To get only K-9 Mail Updates: ^k9-.*.apk$
It should be on F-droid at some point
