I would prefer that Evernote develops a native application for Linux rather than an Electron app.

For example, Slack on Linux is an electron application. Which is somewhat like running the service in a web browser. Sometimes developers just wrap the web version in the form of an Electron application. In simpler terms, an Electron app uses Chromium and Node.js to create a desktop application. It’s not clear at this point if the official Linux client will be an Electron version of the re-designed web client or a native application. The re-engineered web client (in limited release), the new mobile clients (in first preview), and the (as yet unreleased) new clients for Windows, Mac, and (yes!) Linux, along with the ongoing re-architecture and data migration we’ve been doing in the cloud, will set up Evernote to be able to innovate and ship with quality at a pace we haven’t seen in a long time.

Ian mentions that a new client for Windows, Mac and Linux is onto the launching pad. In a recent blog post, CEO Ian Small revealed the planned updates for Evernote for the year 2020.
