@gazumped, if you could point me towards the Linux desktop client, I would be most obliged. Regarding web client session management: this is not exactly rocket science. (Trust me on this. I've done rocket science.) Even the Quora.com platform - which suffers often from 504 Gateway Timeout problem due to slightly ropey servers - stores each change in real time, and can return to a previous session, character-perfect. The fact that Evernote sometimes stores a succession of ten or more duplicate notes within seconds is a bug, pure and simple. And as for editing in a word processor, and then copying into Evernote: for me, the whole point of Evernote is that it reliably stores my notes in real time, and if something like a sudden power failure or crash happens, I've lost nothing. That's not a work-around. If I wanted to do that, I might as well just be creating Word documents and saving them to a Dropbox folder. Sorry if this reads as aggressive. I'm not annoyed at you, I'm annoyed at Evernote for putting me in the situation where I have to consider these kinds of workarounds to avoid the dumb bug that's filling notebooks with duplicate notes I have to sort through to find the most current version.

I'm getting this too. Web client, using Firefox (54.0, 64 bit) on Linux (Ubuntu Creator's Edition, fully up to date). There's only one browser window, with one tab open on Evernote (apart from the tab open on this forum). About four minutes ago, it created no less than ten copies of the document I've been editing for an hour, in addition to the one I'm actively editing. I'd do a screencap for you, but it's got sensitive client information in it - sorry.
