K9 and Thunderbird for Android are now the same app with different branding

So if I already use K-9 Mail, should I bother? Does anything set it apart yet?

K9 is getting rebranded as Thunderbird, if you update it it show up with the new logo

Not quite, they are and will continue to be the same app and code base with distinct branding.

The rebranding in F-droid recently was a mistake that has been fixed.
