Hi Hilary Braun,
Thank you for the update.  I switched to Windows App about a month ago.  It seems that a few operating systems are already supported.  Are there any plans to release a version for Linux?  I'm currently using a browser when on Linux, but the experience is not the same as when using the native app on Windows.
