Tried out the Thunderbird fork "Betterbird" hoping it wouldn't have the issue where new messages won't land until I restart the client (I notice this because they show up on my phone)

and nope, still the same thing.

Haven't heard of Glimpse

lol

it's some .eu thing: https://www.betterbird.eu/ seems like basically the same thing as TBird, but a long time contributor got mad and made a fork.  Too bad the fork didn't fix my issue :'(
>Betterbird is better than Thunderbird in three ways: It contains new features exclusive to Betterbird, it contains bug fixes exclusive to Betterbird and it contains fixes that Thunderbird may ship at a later stage.
