What kind of applications are missing from the Linux ecosystem?
Novelwriter almost hits the sweet spot, but misses some features and is written in python, which makes some features hard to implement due to the nature of the programming language.

Looking for a 'Scrivener Light'
Alternatively, if you want Scrivener-like and are happy with open source projects, novelWriter scratches some of the same itch and is (a) free and (b) available on Linux, Windows, and macOS: it has a similar project-oriented interface to Scrivener, can export projects in HTML, Open Document, Markdown, Plain Text, or PDF, supports tagging and metadata, and uses Markdown for authoring. It's much less hot on importing foreign files (it's really an authoring tool) but is implemented in Python, uses XML/Json for internal files/metadata/configuration, and in use feels like an early version of Scrivener 1.x (which is really what your students want, but Lit'n'Latte discontinued it about a decade ago and you can no longer buy it).

I'm looking for free screenwriting software for Endeavor OS
There is Novelwriter, ostorybook (make sure you select the right java during install or it won't run. I used the plain 'JRE' and it worked) and also one called Manuskript.

What software do you miss from Windows & macOS?
Yeah, I actually found the AppImage after posting that comment. That goes a long way. novelWriter also looks excellent, but it's still very much not even in the same class.

Looking for a piece of software that would help me in writing a book. I haven't written much so I have no expectations. I found some fancy, full-featured app for Mac that costs $50, was wondering if there was anything FOSS with fewer features.
https://novelwriter.io/ is another option, plus it is FOSS
