  1. On the plus side, for those who like markdown Joplin is rather good, is free/open source, and seems to avoid flaming in comments/discussion, has useful migration from evernote, and inline Tex formulas. No tie-in with moleskine merch though.... 😂. I for one look forward to cancelling Evernote, it will be a painless goodbye. [waits for inevitable flame like 'good riddance - EN is perfect already so stop moaning' from the resident experts...]
  2. FYI could pass this to support but why bother lets see what the elephant has to say How does Google Chrome update itself without asking? Google Chrome is designed to update itself automatically without asking for user permission, in order to provide the latest features and security enhancements. The browser checks for updates in the background and installs them automatically without requiring any input from the user. There are several factors that enable Chrome to update itself without asking: Automatic updates are enabled by default: When Chrome is installed, automatic updates are enabled by default. This means that the browser is set up to automatically check for updates and download them as soon as they become available. Silent background updates: Google Chrome uses a silent background update process that runs in the background without disrupting the user's browsing experience. This process checks for updates and downloads them without displaying any pop-ups or notifications that might interrupt the user. Incremental updates: Google Chrome updates are typically small and incremental, which means that they can be downloaded quickly and easily without requiring a lot of bandwidth or disk space. Rapid release cycle: Google Chrome has a rapid release cycle that aims to provide users with the latest features and security updates as soon as possible. This cycle means that updates are released frequently and in small increments, which allows the browser to update itself quickly and seamlessly. In summary, Google Chrome updates itself automatically without asking because of its default settings, silent background update process, incremental updates, and rapid release cycle. These features ensure that the browser is always up-to-date and provides the best possible browsing experience for users. https://www.quora.com/How-does-Google-Chrome-update-itself-to-a-newer-version
  3. You mean exciting. It is exiting - at least in my case. Loving Joplin BTW - and so easy to import EN notebooks! Wowzers. I have marked your answer as the solution though, consider it a random free gift! Tatty-bye, missin' you already.
  4. I was surprised to find it's not Janis, it's some ragtime geezer
  5. Wow, all you have to do is cancel, say reason 'too expensive' and you get a discount! Will this post last long? Let's see, eh.
  6. I'm trying workarounds for Evernote's quixotic lack of support for math formulae latex/markdown style - even MS word had a formula editor 30 yrs ago, and every note app has this now. Anyways one suggested workaround over on reddit (see below) is to use latex2png - and actually this is a feasible workaround. It means however keeping the latex expression alongside the png in a table in Evernote - one needs a 'glossary' like this to save time. Now interestingly Evernote seems to have a feature that throws in another line feed below the png, so the table becomes ridiculous. Change the row height, right? Uh, no. Can't find a workaround for this... that's how I found this thread... which is predictably reverts to the hilarious 'Why would you not want the row height Evernote gives you by default? That's too complicated!' kind of advice. Any ideas? Pink Elephant please don't bother writing another lengthy fairytale.
  7. Clever words 🤦‍♂️ OK boomer You don't use math symbols every day to communicate ideas, got it. Some people do. STEM. Tech. You know... because science. But we get one thing - you have no power at Evernote and so this discussion is indeed futile. Got it.
  8. You should probably get a proper hi-res avatar. Or just get a life since 17,842 posts is a lot pro bono - assuming you're not paid by Evernote despite the pinkbrown-nose appearance.
  9. As mentioned earlier, the strategy of this "contributor" is familiar:
  10. I can assure you that markdown is a minimal, lightweight syntax for entering formulas. But you are only saying what I originally posted: Of course there's a little irony here
  11. Yes I've heard that 'formulas' and what was called 'mathematics' have become a very niche interest and they have gone out of fashion lately in the Evernote community.
  12. Meh, just keep the markdown in Evernote, render it elsewhere, paste back an image. Only a small time-waster. Wouldn't it be nice if a program could do this for you? Like, well, Evernote. Nah, far too complicated. Like Pink Elephant - first understand the limitations of Evernote, then defend them to the bitter end. Simples.
  13. What's hilarious is that Pink Elephant thinks (as usual) that however Evernote have decided to do it, any more is too much, and any less is... too little. However Evernote do it, that's just perfect! Like these lines, for instance. Just dandy. 🍏 here's an apple for teacher, sir.
