  1. Just got it pushed onto me. I'm with the others that lament the passing of the grey mode (or whatever let me have the menu dark but notes white). I have to switch to dark mode, but don't like it. More money for worse UI. And it seems like they are adding more features to free version. Why am I still paying for this thing?
  2. Thanks for taking a look. One thing I really like about EN is being able to share notes in that way, and it's great when they can be formatted almost like a one-off blog post with multi-media stuff. Looking forward to seeing what changes happen over the next year as I re-evaluate. Thanks again for taking the time to respond. Much appreciated.
  3. Hi! Thanks for taking a look. The first part was just a screenshot of how the embedded video looks within the Evernote app. It's just an image. I only included it in an attempt to illustrate how the link renders within the app. Sorry if that just confused things. The point I was attempting to make is that YouTube links render as an embedded video within the Evernote app, but when I share the note, you just see the link. To help clarify, here is a new shared note that only has a YouTube link inside. That's it. In the app, I see this link as the embedded video. Viewed via the share link, however, the same link renders simply as a hyperlink. My wish is that recipients of the link enjoyed the ability to view the video within that shared link just like we do within EN. https://www.evernote.com/shard/s418/sh/98420190-5abf-0307-0964-b91c976ed523/BkRExg926KpsGQveUewg08D-vtypVU568YwhlpIC3WWMoHb55rd6DCf93g Hope that all makes a bit more sense.
  4. Like a lot of other paying users, I'm going to re-up once and see what the next year brings. (Btw my subscription renews is 10 days and I have not received any notice.) One problem is that this will probably become a fulfilling prophecy of sorts. Because I'm skeptical of the value at the new rate, I'll probably start using it less in anticipation of departing in a year (well, a year and ten days). By using it less as a sort of defensive mechanism, I'll find it less valuable and thus probably will convince myself to leave. I think if my subscription ended in 100 days instead of 10, I'd evaluate my renewal more thoroughly. I do enjoy the clipper and send note to EN email address thing. As someone here mentioned, the YouTube embed feature is pretty good with one major caveat - it doesn't work on a shared note. There it just shows the link: https://www.evernote.com/shard/s418/sh/13f4c884-d78d-7b35-1b9c-50be0ccb8cd0/yPUFHS7pvKHnEfBSJWLPyrnKXowSKwD_THgosumDxo_MLQ5aCkiTxR1M8Q
  5. Do you know how we can tell if we're on a grandfathered plan? My membership renews in Sept and I'm trying to figure out if this price increase is gonna hit me, too.
  6. For ten years, we were all asking for encrypted notes. Now we're at the point where we have to beg to be able to consistently see our notes at all. Definitely doesn't feel like the trajectory is upward at the moment.
  7. The EN forums are places for customers to voice things we like, dislike, and wish for when it comes to EN. The EN team itself acknowledges this, a truth made obvious by the fact that EN employees regularly contribute to these forums, acknowledging defects, sharing workarounds, etc. Intimating that customers should stop voicing their displeasure within these forums about a persistent defect creates a chilling effect that stifles communication and openness, which are core attributes of any effective customer forum. If this topic doesn't interest you, perhaps you might simply stop following it instead of telling the rest of us what we should or shouldn't talk about.
  8. I have been very patient with this blank notes thing but to be honest with y'all, after having to kill EN for the gazillionith time, I've just about had it. Reading and writing notes is the core thing EN is supposed to do. To have a persistent bug for this long that directly stops your customers from doing the main thing you are supposed to provide is really beyond the pale. It's been months. Instead of getting a reliable fix for reading and writing notes, we're getting a new home page feature and whatever else. EN product and dev folks, please stop distracting yourselves and focus on enabling your users to use your core feature without constantly having to restart, or go into the task manager to cancel processes (gimme a break) to resolve things. I want to be able to read and write notes reliably. Alllllll the rest depends on these two things. Without this, you have no product - or at least not one worthy of paying for. /rant.
  9. Interesting. I've "gone blank" after clicking a tag in order to filter my notes, so seems like a number of actions make this happen. And I too get the "you'e up to date" pop-up. I understand EN doing a background check for updates periodically but if there is nothing to tell us, then just keep everything under the hood, you know? The good news is that these are annoying things rather than mission critical deficiencies. The bad news is they thought they had the blank notes problem licked with 10.5.7 and clearly they didn't, so who knows how close this is to actual resolution.
  10. I totally agree. The update check should not pop-up every day just because EN is doing its background checking. If there is a new version, sure, show us - but popping up the window every day that says, "You're up to date!" is lame and annoying.
  11. Ok so I just had the blank note problem again on the latest version. I was using the editor, then just selected another note from the preview pane (I have it on the left side as Snippets if that makes any difference to you) and the note didn't load into the editor - just a blank screen. Then I tried clicking on other notes within the preview pane and none of them would load in the editor. The editor always rendered completely blank. I will add that I have images, text, and tags selected as preview options in the note picker section, and these all render ok in preview pane, but again - the editor itself is completely blank. As before, when I shutdown EN and then restart it, the problem resolves itself and the editor renders notes correctly again. So for me on a Mac at least, whatever you released in this latest version did not fix the bug. v 10.5.7 build 2171 public Editor: v114.1.14753 Service: v1.25.2

  13. Interesting, because on my Mac E10 sometimes the notes ALL go blank. They're there when I restart so it's not like they're missing, but a rendering problem stops them all from showing up.
  14. Have y'all been able to get the embed video (which I love) working on a shared public link? I can get the video showing up embedded within the app, but if I share a link to the note it displays only as a link. https://www.evernote.com/shard/s418/sh/d6c127ec-0c41-46f9-991a-2256d4476ff4/3ab6c02e45dcd8027f2dfd43094ce0b0
  15. I understand people have wishes for the software (we all do), but is really a subscription-cancelling level issue for you? I'm just curious because to me, while yes Evernote is imperfect, it is valuable service for me and I would not subscribe/cancel based on something like this. Are (were) you a paying customer? Legit curious why this is a dealbreaker.
