I’m guessing you meant this sarcastically, but you may have been right for the wrong reasons. Look at this graph, by the metric of the way the fediverse works that is a failure. Apple and Google are massively dominant because people don’t want to think about it and most just go with their phone os maker who makes them create one when setting it up, and there is no fediverse server equivalent to that.

a graph of email users by domain. apple and gmail dominate.

This looks like it's conflating service providers and clients. Thunderbird doesn't provide email accounts to the public as far as I know.

~~Same with Apple mail right? I never used an Apple device and was shocked to see them over Gmail because I thought Apple actually gives email service when I saw the graph~~

Apple does give email service for two decades now

Oh I see. Thanks for the clarification.
