Can we get an Evernote Lite?

I've been using Evernote since 2016 and I loved it, but recently it simply became too big. When I want to quickly note something down on my phone it's not possible anymore. Opening the app either takes really long, or it straight up crashes. I have a phone from 2018 and it's simply not good enough for Evernote anymore. It frustrates me as recently I am moving more and more to the native notes app which doesn't have these problems and now my notes are spread around and it requires more work from me to keep it organized.

When I first decided to use Evernote I did it because I heard recommendations that it's the best for what it's made for - taking notes. I don't think it's true anymore - with tasks, calendars and other features I'm simply not using. I understand Evernote needs to keep up with the competition, but can we get a solution for people who just want to take notes? Like a "lite" subscription or a "lite" app. I'd love for it to just have the original features I loved Evernote for - notes, notebooks, tags and web clipper.

On a sidenote, I've been paying for Evernote yearly and when I saw my last bill I was very unhappy. It's been an enormous rise. I understood when it went from ~35 PLN to ~80 PLN (as 35 PLN was incredibly low), but ~180 PLN very much surprised me. I decided to find a cheaper app and migrate there before the next billing period. I understand the inflation and that Evernote is capable of more now, but that's exactly why I decided to try and ask if there are any plans for making a cheaper plan without these features. I simply don't want to pay so much for what I'm not using.
