Indeed. I installed K-9 mail as soon as I discovered it would become Thunderbird for Android.

Did the same, but I’m not using it until the rebranding occurs.

I’ve gotten used to it, but I’m not a massive email user on my phone, mainly use it for alerts so I know to go chek the PC when I get home from work etc.

Very much so. I said recently that Thunderbird for Android is the most exciting thing happening in open source right now.

I thought it was just K9 Mail, is there something else coming up?

So, according to Jason Evangelho (Thunderbird team), when I asked for an ETA:

Currently, we’re shooting for after Thunderbird 115 releases. It could either be late Summer or very early fall. Once we get the Account Autodiscovery module from Thunderbird desktop integrated, we’ll be pretty close to flipping the switch. And we’ll be sure to keep everyone posted on our blog at https://blog.thunderbird.net

I already use it on my desktop, so I am excited for the branded mobile version. Just hoping I can get exchange support on it in some way. I use an extension on the desktop version.

Absolutely! I have been waiting for it… Until it is out I will continue to use “FairEmail”.

You can use k9 right now. Thunderbird mobile is going to be just that with a new name. It already received lots of updates because the main dev is working full time on it now
