Is that not what Thunderbird is (amongst other things)?

Mozilla dropped Thunderbird years ago, it runs independently now.

Hmm can you elaborate on that?

> Thunderbird is now part of MZLA Technologies Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mozilla Foundation

Are you saying that it technically lives under the Mozilla umbrella but they take a completely hands-off approach?

Meh, ffx is fundamentally an email client. I think it's not a great fit for an RSS reader. Eg in RSS you may want to browse posts with images and snippets, laid out in cards. Eg more like a social media site. Thunderbird lays everything as a list of emails. I'm sure this works for some but I think it's far too narrow in scope.
