Its acquirer (Bending Spoons) has taken over operations. They’ve also hiked subscriptions prices and told customers they intend to use new revenues to pay for new features. How they intend to do that without any staff is something I would like to know about.
If you’re still using Evernote, probably a good time to stop.
Oh bruh, I have 209 notes in their cloud, I fuckin used their app daily for school what the fuc, why they gotta be bad now
I love Upnote ❤️
Had an account since about 2010, looks like I stopped using it around 2016. Just logged in to see what if anything was left. A few notes, nothing important.
Tried closing my account instead of just leaving it hanging out there and it fails. Guess I’ll try later
Again it show subscription based services should be avoided like plague. Once you become an intensive user the subscription price increases and it’s painful to change.

Looks interesting. Would love to know more about the people behind it. A lot of trust to put in some anonymous devs with a new app

Had a quick look. Although the ui is “pretty” usability wise it’s not intuitive at all and needs a lot of work imo.
I’d like to learn more about this. I’m a notion user myself but a few weeks ago I was looking into alternatives and didn’t get anywhere. What’s your elevator pitch?

No worries! I’ll look into it some more!
Loved the idea of the product but after a year or two mod using it, I ditched it for a simple diy setup with syncthing.
I forgot Evernote existed. Time to back up my notes from 2014.
I’ve tried using Evernote from time to time throughout the years and each time only last about a week into it, it just doesn’t naturally fit into my personal “workflow”. I definitelly need something for capturing ideas, but for whatever reason, Evernote wasn’t it for me. I’ve been bouncing between Notion and Obsidian currently, with Obsidian at least being my work note-taking app and Notion being more for personal notes (since I have more flexibility in where I can access it).
Same thing for me. I feel like Obsidian fares better for my work notes which are mainly text, and Notion fares better for my personal (and D&D) notes, which include more media.
I’ve been using Google Docs for my tabletop game notes but felt like I was constantly fussing with formatting and struggling to have text and photos alongside each other without being a jumbled mess.
I’ve been trying out Obsidian instead which I really like for technical notes, but I definitely have to be more careful and deliberate about embedding images.
If I had to choose only one, I’d probably go with Obsidian, but I haven’t found a free mobile/desktop syncing option that I’ve been happy with. Both Syncthing and iCloud have given me file versioning conflicts for some reason, so I’m always hesitant to use it in case I were to lose something. Notion just works without me having to think about it, and I do actually like the way it handles some things, but I like how flexible Obsidian can be with plug-ins. Until either app does something to push me away, I’m fine just floating between the two for now.
Another alternative is Trilium
I didn’t know Evernote was acquired. Rip Evernote ig.

Wow. I ditched Evernote after their last price
gougeincrease, and that’s after being with them from the very beginning. Thank God I bailed when I did.Oh yeah, Evernote used to exist, forgot about that.
I see a lot of alternatives being discussed here so I’ll just throw one more on the pile for Mac users: Devonthink.
It organizes and centralizes a bunch of stuff for me. Has tagging, folders, a bunch of handy metadata and even tries to automatically sort/file things. It allows separate databases for work, personal or projects. Syncs/backs up via popular cloud providers - even multiple if you want redundancy. Just about the only thing I wish it did a better job of is scanning to PDF with a phone camera.
