Today I cancelled my #evernote subscription after 15 years. Like Dropbox & others, it started out as a great set of native apps with good UI and functionality, but over the years fell victim to feature creep, pushy upsell, and pretty dramatic price increases.

I imported my 5000+ notes to Apple Notes, which today happens to be the closest thing I could find to the OG Evernote experience. I'm sure I’ll find a few formatting issues here and there, but everything I’ve looked at so far has translated flawlessly, metadata and all.

Also shoutout to #fujitsu for continuing to support my ScanSnap 1300i 12 years later, including letting me scan OCR’d PDFs directly to Notes.

That was surprisingly painless! Just imported 12 years of Evernote use into @obsidian ! 🤩 #evernoteexodus #obsidianrocks

I have been using #Evernote since 2011 and have 356 notes. The free plan first got reduced to two devices only, then the user interface turned into an impossible mess that slowed everything down and now they tell me I cannot have more than 50 notes on a free plan anymore.
Goodbye Evernote, it was fun while it lasted.

What's a good Evernote replacement (that is NOT Notion)?
Any new toys in town? Or has OneNote improved since 2016?

Funnily I found this hashtag while typing: #EvernoteExodus 😂
