I think that is important to cover all the platforms for all the users.
I recently created an Ubuntu script to install Deezer based on the fantastic work done by IlyaGulya and SibrenVasse on an AUR package for Arch Linux. It should work on Debian too since Ubuntu is based on Debian, but I haven't tested it.
You can view instructions on how to install it here https://github.com/siphomateke/deezer. It's not at all official and isn't guaranteed to work with future Deezer versions but it's what I am now using.
I'm not sure why Deezer hasn't added support for Linux yet considering the Deezer desktop app for windows is an Electron app and runs just fine on Linux with a few minor tweaks.
Hopefully this helps my fellow Ubuntu users.

The default is not compiled with proprietary codecs (and I could not find how to do so), and I don't want to use flash because of obvious reasons.

Still better then the native Spotify but not by far as good as a good player/codec like Deadbeef.
I am running: Jack sink - Jconvolver - firewire- M-audio (tweaked PSU + D/A converter)
So I am pretty sure it's the codec we are talking about...

I know Linux is not the hippest thing out there and have the largest market share. Still, a lot of people are using Linux and are not satisfied with the browser player in a long term relationship.
Ever since I came to Deezer (right after simfy closed and forwarded their users to Deezer) I found their music selection and player (Browser and Android) reasonable enough not to look any further for other services. Albeit, a native Linux support would make the experience so much better.
It's sad that during all those years none was developed. Linux might not be the hippest, most sexy platform to go to, but the Linux people are usually driven by a passion about their computer ecosystem that leads them to strongly recommend a tool/program/service over the other.
I would not go as far to switch to another service, but others here are so much dissatisfied with the lack of a native Linux player that they move... even if they "love Deezer".
Therefore, please consider creating a native client!

Well, I'm using ArchLinux, MellowPlayer from the AUR has got Deezer support, I use it almost every day without a problem.
From what I've seen in the documentation, while the AppImage hasn't the proprietary codecs, there is a workaround/fix for the official releases from the distros.
But still, we shouldn't need to use third-party players, a native client would be better, with offline support and such features

- not a player, it's a customized browser
- with a huge overhead
- it needs Macromedia Flash to play audio (not kidding)
- doesn't do highdpi
- doesn't support Deezer HIFI
