Targeting .NET Core vs .NET Standard

We've a server side "classic" WCF .NET application running on Windows. We added last year Linux support using Mono and a Web-Api replacement of WCF. Checking the compatibility with the Api-Port tool, we found that the we would need much few changes targeting directly .NET Core instead of .NET Standard.

So for server side application like ours, that will be running only on Windows and Linux, is it correct to say that does not make any sense to target .NET Standard?

For server-side applications targeting .NET Core is enough.

There is a detailed answer here: What is the difference between .NET Core and .NET Standard Class Library project types?
