I’ve not used an email client in about 10 years. I used to use Thunderbird but overall web UIs have made things far easier, more featurefull, and more supported. I’m happy Thunderbird still gets updates but I don’t see a world where I use it.
I have notifier for gmail on firefox. Logs in to all my emails and just notifies me if there is an email. I manage 3 different emails on 3 different domains. With aliases I have about 10 emails but my aliases forward emails to the correct inbox.
I never need emails offline on my desktop. My phone email client keeps everything but that’s just the standard Gmail app. Anytime I don’t have internet is when I am mobile and thus I have my phone and it’s far more convenient than trying to lug out my laptop or such. Also with a laptop that’s offline, I don’t see the reason for email since I already have a phone that stores emails when I need them for hotels or flights. It’s not like I am going to reply to emails during a time without the internet. Most of the time to reply I need to reference something online so even if I could queue it for sending when I do get online it’s useless to do so.

It makes a lot more sense if you have multiple emails. Especially emails with numerous aliases.
Yeah I use 3 emails on 3 different domain servers which means opening 3 tabs and being redirected to portals on all of them
Yeah I use it on my work laptop. I have two work emails and my personal email so having thunderbird is a huge convenience

Even then I do this with gmail in the web client. That said i dont really BYOD or work from personal stuff. So there is that.
I find it useful to have offline access to email.
Off…line…? Like no internet? 😱
