Thunderbird is a fully-featured mail app and much more performant than Gmail. Neovim has more or less the same feature set as VSCode and its performance is incomparably better.

TB is great and I use it every day. An argument for it from a performance standpoint is ridiculous on its face. Put 10G of mail in the Inbox and come back to me with measurements. GMail laughs at mere gigabytes.

Gmail takes tens of seconds to start up no matter how much mail you have.
