Simon, Electron itself is not necessarily the problem. Visual Studio Code shows that you can build a very fast, powerful and user friendly IDE on top of Electron.
But I agree with your other points. They plan to add some features (like settings) back later, and will probably improve the UI, but some important features like local notebooks are gone forever. Also, the device limit now includes web access.
Since I cannot have local notebooks any more, I switched to Obsidian, which is also based on Electron, but so much better in many regards, particularly if you appreciate local storage and Markdown. I am using https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert my Evernote notebooks to Obsidian.
Firstly, I cannot stand electron apps. I'm a keyboard user and often
simple shortcuts just don't work. Secondly, with only 500 notes every
time I click on a notebook it take a few seconds for the list to appear.
Thirdly, no settings whatsoever.
I'm not sure what happen with offline notebooks on the mac as there are
no preferences.
