NixNote2, however, so far seems to reproduce the Windows desktop client, which gives me a lot more flexibility. I think I see what some have been saying, that the desktop linux clients simply reproduce the web view. I have tried two linux 'desktop' (my how terms change their meaning!) versions so far, Tusk & NixNote2. I read a few articles proposing that us Linux users should just think about replacing Evernote with some other note application. I slide it over to my second monitor to keep it separated from the riff raff. Kind of FEELS like an Evernote client that way.

I've also experimented with opening ENWeb in its own window and using it that way. I simply keep it open in a tab at all times and use it as needed. I'm starting to feel like I can let it go and settle in with Evernote Web and stop searching for some magical solution. I looked at Tusk, but it doesn't seem to offer anything that you can't get in the web client already. But for me, it was buggy as hell, to the point where I couldn't WAIT to uninstall the thing. I thought the interface was pretty good and enough like the Evernote Windows Client to be familiar. Before I came to that conclusion, I tried Nixnote2. I'm actually fairly content with using the web version now. At the same time, using Evernote Web has been easier than I expected it to be and then new Beta version even more so. I just jumped over to Linux Mint from Windows and the lack of Evernote client is my only real discomfort in making the adjustment. I would prefer a quick & easy import process from OneNote, but I could live without that and manually paste in my notes, if I could just have offline capabilities. Also, at least 3 levels of hierarchy are also important to me. Has anyone here tried them, or any other Linux clients? Thoughts or pitfalls? Again, I'd prefer the one that does allow me to work offline. Anyways, I have heard of Everpad, Tusk, NixNote2, Whatever. I can live with using a web version, but occasionally I do work without an internet connection and would want at least the ability to work offline (temporarily) until I could sync them, although I'll be moving over from an installed version of OneNote, so I really don't want/need the online sync, and quite frankly would prefer to avoid it if I could. I am primarily interested in doing work on my laptop. I am just interested in asking Linux users here, what the best experience has been. I am not interested in starting a debate on what OSes Evernote should support with native clients.
