The deb package cannot be installed under current Ubuntu 20.04
See original GitHub issuereparing to unpack remarkable_1.87_all.deb ...
Unpacking remarkable (1.87) ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of remarkable:
remarkable depends on gir1.2-webkit-3.0; however:
Package gir1.2-webkit-3.0 is not installed.
BUT:
$ sudo apt install gir1.2-webkit-3.0
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package gir1.2-webkit-3.0 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package 'gir1.2-webkit-3.0' has no installation candidate
It seems in 20.04 only gir1.2-webkit2-4.0 is available, see https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&keywords=gir1.2-webkit&searchon=names
Just cloning the GitHub repo and running from there works fine though!

Also I repackages the deb for Ubuntu 20.04, you can find it here: https://github.com/seiferteric/remarkable_debfix
Yeah it’s not working on Ubuntu 20.04 for me aswell.
If you just want to get it working you can also use:
snap install remarkable
which is an unofficial upload from here.
