Just wondering why the latest thunderbird update is not yet available?

Quick guess ... The devs have lives outside of Artix?!
If you notice, the version in the Artix repo is the ESR version. It's always a bit behind.
128.3.3-1 is on the Arch repos.
So why not get it yourself and install it?

I am a bit wary of installing from Arch when there is an Artix version 'available'. I guess I assume that the Artix version has been verified for Artix.

Thanks for the reply.

Where do you see ESR?

In omniverse repo there is already betterbird:

omniverse/betterbird 128.3.3-1 [installed: 128.3.2-1]
    Betterbird is a fine-tuned version of Mozilla
    Thunderbird, Thunderbird on steroids, if you will.

Thunderbird 128.4.0 is currently being built for the galaxy-gremlins repo.
Betterbird 128.4.0 is currently being built for the omniverse repo (this takes longer, also because the build is on a not-so-fast server).
