## What it is
Lotion is an unofficial Electron-based desktop client for Notion.so focused on Linux, where Notion offers no native app. It wraps Notion's web app with a multi-tab frameless window, theming, spell check, and desktop integrations.

## Use cases
- use Notion on Linux without a browser tab
- manage multiple Notion workspaces in tabs
- apply dark themes like Dracula or Nord to Notion
- get native desktop Notion experience on Linux
- restore my Notion tabs after restarting
- open Notion links in the app instead of the browser

## When to choose
- you're on Linux and want a native-feeling Notion desktop app
- you want multi-tab Notion with custom themes and spell check
- you prefer desktop integration like session restore and external link handling

## When to avoid
- you're on macOS or Windows where official Notion apps exist
- you need guaranteed compatibility since it's unofficial and depends on Notion's web app
- you only need Notion occasionally in a browser
