Native Firefox build has been available for Windows on ARM for quit some time. It is time for Thunderbird to catch up.

I could try to build it and then publish my build to others interested in that.

The thing is I don't know whether it's possible: The wiki to build on Windows only mentions x64 (even for MacOS by the way even if ARM macOS build exists):

Now that we have all the new laptops that have come out this week using the Snapdragon(R) X 12-core ARM cpu can we possibly see a native build?  I just moved everything over this week to my Suface Laptop and even though the "emulation" is snappy and works it would be great to have a native build instead.

that would be awesome!

Please give us a native ARM release for Windows! I am running an old ARM PC and thunderbird is the only thing that needs emulation. Firefox is running pretty smooth, Thunderbird emulation is sometimes quite a pain.

yes, please give us a native ARM release for Windows.

I am running an older samsung ARM PC and thunderbird ist the only thing that needs emulation on my daily use. Firefox runs smooth all the time, but thunderbird emulation keeps giving me a hard time. Hoping for the native release!

So obvious as arm is a real competitor for Intel and AMD

With the many new Snapdragon Laptops that have arrived, a naive ARM build would be quite important! Please give us one!
