I'm not currently running any Linux and so I can't give you personal reviews, but I did come across this:
Using iCloud on Linux
If you want to use iCloud on your Linux
system, you've probably already installed one of the native apps. If
not, you can use the snap package. It requires full system access, but
snaps are not automatically installed - you have to ask the installer
for special permissions. Once installed, the iCloud app will be
auto-updated. It also works with most major Linux apps. Here are the
steps to follow to get it working.
iCloud for Linux: The iCloud
online storage service is currently only available for Mac OS X and
Windows Vista/7 users who are connected to an Apple network. Sadly,
iCloud for Linux is not available yet, though that may change in the
future. Linux users can choose from several other cloud storage
solutions that offer many of the same features, as well as
synchronization options. For the time being, however, this service isn't
available on Linux.
First, you need to install the snap runtime
and the snapcraft store. These can be downloaded from the snapcraft
store. You can open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T. You can
also press Shift instead of Alt. Then type snap install into the
terminal window. You should be able to see your iCloud account's
dashboard. You're all set to use iCloud on Linux!
The app will
then open up in the application menu. Next, you'll need to login to your
Apple ID. Once you've logged in, you can now view your most recent
saved notes and switch to other iCloud apps. Once you've successfully
logged in, you can access your email, calendar, and contacts. You'll
need to enter your Apple ID and password to sign in. The app will ask
you to confirm your Apple ID before you can access your iCloud accounts.
