Description

Hey There,

Just Found About Android Roadmap (planning/android-roadmap.md) Of "K-9 -> Thunderbird For Android", Where, In Q4 2023, First Release Of Thunderbird For Android Will Be Released.

Since The Date Is Close, In My Opinion, The Name Should Be Like "K-9: Thunderbird For Android".

Reason? :-

  1. Modern Day Apps Released Are Named With Very Common Words. Recent Example Being "Threads" By Meta.

Now If We Think About A Snappy, 'Quick To Pronounce' Name (Like For Example "TikTok"), "K-9" Seams A Pretty Fit.

  1. Since This Is Official Android Thunderbird Client, The Descriptive Part (i.e. "Thunderbird For Android") Will Enhance The First Impression On Users (Especially, Users Of Thunderbird Desktop).

I Think The Name Might Change In Q4 2023's Release, So, Just Sharing My Opinion On The Naming.

P.S. :- Didn't Know Where To Suggest This, So, Writing Here.

Thanks!
