    OK… Now what actionable thing can I do with this info? Use outlook? What good would that do?

    I want firefox to exist to create a good browser and thunderbird to exist for a good email client. Is that too much to ask?

      I don’t think you need to do anything different. Sometimes when I learn new things I say “oh, interesting.”

          You could switch to KMail, which is developed by the KDE community, organised in KDE e.V., an actual registered non-profit.
          Or Evolution, developed by the GNOME project, organised in the GNOME foundation, another registered non-profit.

            That said, GNOME has close ties to IMB/RedHat, so use that info however you see fit.

              Every big open source project now has ties to one corporation or another.
              Linux isn’t a hobby project of a few hackers anymore.

                Yup, but some, like Linux, has a good assortment of corporate backers, instead of one massive org.

                Pick your poison I guess, but at the end of the day, as long as it’s FOSS, it can be forked if necessary.
