Mozilla’s latest version of Thunderbird email has a brand-new interface that finally brings the aging application closer to modern aesthetic standards.
Now, it’s not like it’s going to absolutely wow you. The new look isn’t a dramatic departure from the aging UI. Instead, it’s a subtle tweak that gives Thunderbird a more in-touch feel that is not just more pleasing to look at but easier to use. It’s more efficient and it offers a cleaner default font that renders text so much better (especially on the Linux desktop).
The good news is that the new-look Thunderbird isn’t such a dramatic departure from the old that you’ll have to scramble to get up to speed
How can anyone post an article like that, without a screenshot?
There’s a nice slider to compare old and new:

It was a joke. They’re both the old version.
Are they? I think the 3 columns layout is the new version.
You are right pistachio, they are just joking around, It even says in the picture which one is which. IMO they actually did a great job by not changing too much, which would anger a part of the userbase, while still improving and modernizing the layout. And lets not forget about the work they did on the core of thunderbird, rewriting a lot, which gives them the opportunity to introduce new features much more easily in the future.
Still waiting for the flatpak package lol
