I am Sr. Community Manager for Thunderbird, and I invite you to get involved in the great Thunderbird community. As Community Manager I facilitate, promote and provide productive discussion forums, activities, and resources that enable the community to work together toward a more awesome Thunderbird. Catch me at @wsmwk:matrix.org, SUMO or wayne [at] thunderbird.net and vseerror [at] fastmail.com.
For two decades I've supported users and worked in various areas of Thunderbird: bug triage and QA, crashes, dataloss, stability, search and performance to name a few. Frequently seen helping users in Thunderbird Support (SUMO), Connect, and reddit. Accessibility advocate.
How YOU can help

History
Thunderbird volunteer 2001-2022, and Release Manager for almost a decade. Bugzilla fan. Resurrected PalmSync add-on. Founding member of Thunderbird Council, and council member 2014-2020. Forty-five years in higher education doing mainframe and Windows servers, networking, SANs and VMWare, and backup systems.
