From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think we have to give credit where it's due and a lot of Linux apps (mostly the non-distro ones, so no Gnome apps etc.) Do have quite dated interfaces. I can't find a nice mail client except mailspring and bluemail, both of which then come with some features not working (depending on your distro etc.)
Thunderbird is quite nice with the new updates
Here is a screen-shot of latest Thunderbird (ESR) Email client: https://www.thunderbird.net/media/img/thunderbird/new/screens/mail-screen.png
