Alternatives to Thunderbird

Hi r/linux!

I'm actually searching for a mail client. I don't use emails a lot, so complex mail managers like outlook or thunderbird aren't the best for me.

I'm searching for a simple, minimalistic, quite good looking mail manager (something like the default mail manager on win10)

Do you have any suggestions?

Is there a Linux music player with ReplayGain and good library management that doesn't suck?

In the past year since switching my personal laptop from Windows 10 to Linux, I've been searching for a good music player app. On Windows I used MediaMonkey.

I must have tried at least 20 or 30 different Linux music players since then. I finally settled on Clementine, but it has some bugs which are making it nearly unusable for me. The biggest issue is that it seems to have a bad memory leak. I spend a lot of time creating playlists, which means I'm listening to the first 10-20 seconds of a ton of songs, one after the other, trying to decide if I want it in my playlist. Every time I do this, it bogs down after a few minutes. Songs start to buffer for a few seconds when I click on them, instead of playing immediately. Then it buffers again if I try to skip ahead in the song. Eventually it just freezes up altogether. So I've gotten in the habit of restarting the application as soon as it starts to buffer. Since development on Clementine seems to have halted in 2016, there's seemingly no chance for a bug fix, unless I want to delve into the code myself. But even when it's working normally, I don't like Clementine that much. So investing the time to fix the bug(s) doesn't seem worth it. And I have too many side projects as it is.

So, are there any Linux music player apps that don't suck? Ideally, there would be something like MediaMonkey for Linux. But as a bare minimum, I need something with ReplayGain support, good (but not necessarily stellar) library management features, and ease of creating/managing playlists.

Btw, I have gotten MediaMonkey to run in Wine, but not reliably. And I'd prefer to have a native app rather than constantly having to troubleshoot Wine issues for every new MediaMonkey release, or every time I decide to switch Linux distros.

Linux kernel maintainer says that Intel chipsets have more Spectre like vulnerabilities. No way to fix besides disabling hyperthreading with 20% performance cut.

[https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/10/29/intel\_disable\_hyper\_threading\_linux\_kernel\_maintainer/](https://www.theregister.co.uk/2019/10/29/intel_disable_hyper_threading_linux_kernel_maintainer/)

All Linux laptop vendors I know of like Dell, System 76, Purism don't seem to provide AMD based Linux laptops.

I'm not so sure about workstations though as my knowledge in that area is quite limited.

I don't understand how people are okay with using Intel chips for so long with so many vulnerabilities, especially when software based patches significantly destroy performance.
