Thunderbird in Assets? #3802
Description
Prerequisites
- I performed a cursory search of the issue tracker to avoid opening a duplicate issue.
Description
I wasn't able to comment on the commit and I don't use Reddit so apologies if this is not well-received.
I don't know what feedback you want but I do enjoy the Thunderbird assets and have automation looking for it. Would you accept a pull request adding those assets back to the releases? (I don't consume anything related to NPM.)

Regrettably, I have seen no asset for Thunderbird lately.
Has the asset for Thunderbird been discontinued?

Removing Thunderbird assets is one of the silliest things I've seen done here. What's the issue with providing it?

It's in the commit message. If you want to do "non-silly" thing, feel free to undertake it yourself.
We are volunteers, we don't have enough time.

FWIW: I started maintaining this myself here: https://github.com/celenityy/uBird.

Unfortunately, repository from "scratch" causes old links to be broken:
I don't know if it's possible to add an alias when someone posted an old link in a thread with a reply editing lock (e.g. limited to repository organization).
Theoretically, when we abandon the releases section on GitHub, we can make a fake entry there with links to the gitlab installation (until Microsoft regulations prohibit it retroactively, generating warnings about the possibility of losing the repository/organization/account).
