Am I likely to break something?You don't need to force anything, just install it from the AUR as per usual:https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/thunderbird-binNo drama or worrying about breaking stuff, it's just a normal package install.
My understanding is that Manjaro != ArchMy understanding was that a user would use Manjaro to usually take a step back from the bleeding-edge, and allow packages to progress as follows:
Arch --> Manjaro Unstable --> Manjaro Testing --> Manjaro Stablehttps://packages.manjaro.org/?query=thunderbird still indicates that everything in Manjaro is 91.10.0-1.
Now, I'm not saying that the Arch AUR might install and somewhat work on Manjaro, but as the OP did not know how to install a package outside of Manjaro's package management system, I personally think it best to suggest they wait.
If they wanted bleeding edge (and could cope with all the issues that entails), then they'd be running Arch, not Manjaro.
