Dropbox Paper could really win over Evernote, just a native Mac app is still missing 😉

@skreutzb hear you on that – it's something many of us on the team would like too. (we live out of Paper as we're building Paper.)

@skreutzb There are "easier" ways to do this. Slack's MacOS app is an example of an alternative approach to a native app.

@kennethchen a native Paper app should feel as fast as Pages I think. Rich-text editing quickly feels sluggish if not done really native. That's what keeps Google Docs from replacing MS Word or Apple Pages. Performance is king when working on text.

@skreutzb I wasn't arguing that using a MacGap or Electron approach would meet or exceed the performance of a native app. Even well funded organizations who care about the user experience like Slack can decide it's an acceptable trade off given all their priorities and business goals.

@skreutzb No. Not yet. It will need to be extended with a lot of functionality you didn't know Evernote has. Superfluously you might think that. But no. It may look nice but I think it is a loss leader.
