Thunderbird is quite healthy and received $8.6M in donations in 2023[0] which is used to employ 24 people[1].

Unlike Firefox, donations are used to fund development.

I guess what we need is a non-profit fork of Firefox that takes donations directly and focuses only on the browser.

To be honest, I'm pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the info.
