It probably is. Since they already have a working web app, why would they throw all that away and start a new project from scratch targeting 3 platforms (MacOS, Linux and Windows) and triple the maintenance burden?
I'm assuming they have reworked their current web app into an electron (or similar) desktop application and going forward they can make changes and immediately push out to both web and desktop.
- aurareturn 3y agoWe should ask people who complain about Electron apps if they're willing to pay an extra $20/month to pay for a team of developers to make and maintain a native app for each platform. I'd bet they say no. If they say yes, they're lying.
- teekert 3y agoI'm on Linux and elecron apps are always good news for me, because I know I won't be left out ;)
- fifteen1506 3y agoUnless you're using Evernote. Private Beta for Evernote for Linux and afterwards..... An email saying they are stopping the development of Evernote Linux :) PS: Electron, AFAIK.
- teekert 3y agoDamn, that's some low effort for Linux people. Well I’m using Obsidian. They’re on some old version of electron. Which is annoying but it works well other than that it requires some exception in my Nix config.
