Thunderbird Release
Will Thunderbird Release make it any easier to migrate Thunderbird from Win10 to Linux (Ubuntu or Mint)... With 200 million PCs becoming obsolete in a few months, I would think Mozilla would have noted that many of us are going to migrate to Linux but moving Thunderbird has been a nightmare (still unsuccessful nightmare). I've followed all the directives and none seem to work... I've been using TBird since it started and have a LOT of emails I'd prefer not to lose so if I could just get my Windows profile to work on Linux it would be great... I know you're busy, but we are facing an Armageddon of sorts out here... Help! Thanks a million cheers pj

Profile transfer won't change with the new ESR or 'release' versions, and the simplest way (if the profile is < 2GB) is with Tools/Export... Import...
Note that I'm writing this on a 2nd generation Intel laptop (orig. Win7) with W11 24H2. Switching to Linux isn't necessary, yet.
