I hope this service will use JMAP and push the Thunderbird client itself to adopt it

> The final launch will be Thundermail, an email hosting service using the open-source Stalwart stack. Users will be able to pick between thundermail.com and tb.pro domains.

If the article is correct, Thundermail will be built using Stalwart[1], which appears to support JMAP

Yes! I'm a fastmail user and every couple of months I do a survey of JMAP support and come back disappointed.

Speaking about thunderbird, I liked their UI redesign, but it seems they are taking away quite a bit of plugin capabilities, e.g. there used to be the possibility to run firenvim (a plugin to run neovim in the compose window), but that's not possible anymore.

Is it just JMAP, or why does Fastmail's web app feel so fast? I have moved away from all locally running mail apps to Fastmail and even fetch/alias all my other mail accounts to them because of the much better experience.

Because most working web developers actually have no idea how to write JS; they follow what is presented (perpetuated) as industry standard practice, but in a React-and-NPM world, "industry standard practice" means bad practices.

Probably partially because of JMAP, partially because they have a single mission and know when to leave well enough alone
