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 never really understood the need for such apps when mail clients such as Thunderbird exist.
The ProtonBridge used to be garbage so people have wanted a dedicated app for awhile now. Over the past year or two, the Bridge finally works fairly reliably so ...a little too late.
So the bridge now syncs your calendars, contacts, files & passwords? 😛 Their bridge still sucks like it always has.
