Restore an equal focus on single users mode rather than "collaboration first" philosophy.

Idea

To do so, the following features from the legacy version should be restored:

  • Number of fonts: there are many fonts that are completely cross-platform. Why are we limited to 6 choices?! What are not all common fonts available? Even Google Docs has better font choices! 
  • Presentation mode--this was the killer feature of the Legacy App. No one else has it. It is mind-boggling why this has not been restored.
  • fix spacing: why are there suddenly extra spaces between lines of text all over the place?
  • Bring back visual customization for the user. The new UI looks terrible and makes focusing on the task at hand more difficult. 
  • Speed
  • Collaboration tools? Fine. Collaboration at the expense of the individual experience? It makes the entire program less valuable. 

 The entire user experience is getting worse and worse. Sadly, there is no 1-for-1 replacement of Evernote. Of course at the rate Bending Spoons is dismantling Evernote, Evernote won't be Evernote either.

Oh, Google Docs has better font choices.

I am absolutely sure they have, all these precious Google fonts. All for "Free".

Do you know how Google is tracking you on the web ? Without using cookies any more ? Well, simple: They distribute fonts. You install them, most unwillingly when you open a website. The website asks your computer which fonts it has. It receives a list of them, compares it to which fonts the website is using, and sends only those fonts missing on your computer.

So far, so boring, you think.

OK, but there is a collection of fonts on your computer, and it is send to the web servers you approach. Practically every computer has a unique collection of fonts. The collection of fonts (in combination with a few other elements) are used to create a unique fingerprint of your computer. This fingerprint is then used to identify you, and to send you all that wave of advertising you have learned you can't escape.

Now you learned why the ads follow you, from website to website.

The old truth holds up here again: If Google does anything for "Free", you should always wonder why they are so "generous". They are as generous as that spider called Black Widow with her net: Because they want to catch prey, they live on selling your attention to "the industry". To make this very profitable, they need to identify you: By "freely" distributing their fonts.

To wrap it up: I am personally very happy EN refrained from using Google Fonts. They are among the only "Free" ones for all platforms, but they come with a price: Your privacy !
