I use multiple computers and operating systems. During a single day I could use three different computers, each of which has Windows 10 or 11 and Linux Mint (20+) on them. I use Thunderbird on each computer and in each operating system.

What I am trying to do is to use one Thunderbird profile across all implementations of Thunderbird. Is it possible to put the Thunderbird profile on a cloud server and run Thunderbird using the cloud based profile? I have both Dropbox and One Drive available. My preference would be to use One Drive because my employer (a university) offers this to all of its employees. Dropbox would be acceptable. Can I use either of these?

Are there any tips I need to implement this?

Current version of Thunderbird is 102.11.2 (64-bit)

Thanks for any help.

You should never use multiple computers against the same data profile directory, and also not from different OS.

You should wait for the Thunderbird sync function, still a work in progress.

Unless you are making frequent changes to profile settings or add-ons, it makes little sense to use a single cloud profile. Mail, contacts and calendars can be easily synced across multiple devices, not just desktop computers, with IMAP (for mail), CalDAV (calendars) and CardDAV (contacts). Mail storage can be minimized by not keeping IMAP folders for offline access.
