Is there a way to use this as a drop in replacement easily? Like maybe move my Thunderbird profile folder into a Bettterbord folder, or maybe an automatic import option?
This looks promising but I don't really want to set up my email accounts and settings from scratch.

As per the FAQ they seem to share the exact same profile so you can seamlessly switch between them (provided both are the same dot release).
Edit: in case that doesn't work, run
betterbird -pand select the right profile. For me it chose the wrong one.-
I just gave it a try and it does not pick up my existing Thunderbird data automatically, or prompt to import it.

The instructions change if you're using flatpak. I was only able to get it to work with a manual import
-
for TB -> TB-flatpack simply pasting from
~/.thunderbird/to~/.var/app/org.mozilla.Thunderbird/.thunderbird/did work for me. I might try betterbird sometime. -
I'm on Windows myself, so nothing being isolated here.
