Why protonmail over Thunderbird if you like Mozilla products?

I've used Thunderbird for years and am perfectly satisfied with it.
They're not the same thing, i.e. I use protonmail exclusively WITH Thunderbird. Thunderbird is an email CLIENT, and as long as you configure it correctly, doesn't care whether it's pulling/sending messages from/to a hotmail/gmail/yahoo mail/America Online/protonmail et c. server. Protonmail is an email sever that HAS a web interface, but like you I prefer Thunderbird's. So I use protonmail for its secure servers and Thunderbird as my email and calendar client.

I hope that clears things up.

Chrome exists for the sole purpose of spying on you. Same thing with gmail. I converted everything to protonmail and firefox, and am actively moving back to linux.
