I've been receiving constant spam dialogues every time I open Evernote, although I don't need any of the "Pro" features and I'm happy with the free version's features (since the paid version doesn't make bugs go away). It seems to me you're missing some configuration that allows me to stop the pestering.

No, it's not about engagement. This is about the danger of someone sending you to an Evernote page (a public or shared note), and then placing a link that makes it seem like you're still inside Evernote but actually takes you outside. For instance, a link that takes you to a fake Evernote login page where you might enter your username and password which they will then steal. But you're right that if you're within your own private note, there's probably no good reason to protect links this way. ... But this would require someone: Handling these different scenarios separately. Caring about improving basic UX instead of adding new features nobody asked for. Meanwhile, here we are in a Forum where the only people not ignoring our requests are these Evernote Forum stans that tell you you're wrong because they don't care about the same things you do, and that act as if people expressing their personal frustrations somehow threaten their own sense of identity. So, the only thing I can say to all this: hope you have happy holidays and a nice start of the year.

Yes, please, remove this message.

I know about these, but I don't want to install any third-party tool that messes with core OS functionality and which might break with Mac OS updates or cause hard to identify problems. Moreover, Apple's Human Interface Guidelines say This means that these menu bar icons should be opt-in, and not opt-out... so 100% there should be a way to remove them.

Please add a setting that allow us to remove the Evernote icon from the Mac OS menu bar. Space there is extremely limited and I find no use for it... I can just alt-tab to Evernote whenever I need to.

I agree, and it's INCREDIBLE that we even have to tell this is WRONG! I'm trying to WOOOOORRRKKKK, and get an annoying pop-up stopping me dead on my tracks!

Hey @PinkElephant... I know you want to be helpful, and are perhaps personally annoyed at the collective insistence... ... but this forum is called "Product Feedback/Feature Requests", so it doesn't seem too crazy from our part to give feedback and ask for features. Also, it's the official forum and one would expect the developers to read it now and again, even if they don't directly respond to requests through this medium. I feel that our feedback has merit if nothing else because we're a lot of people annoyed by this particular decision. None of the alternatives you suggest work for me, for reasons I don't want to go into. You responding to each of us explaining why our complaint is misplaced, even if you have the best intentions, interferes with our use of this feedback space that the developer has provided. Some of us have some faith that at some point we'll be heard and until then at least for me it would be better to be ignored than actively dismissed.

It's incredible that there's still no way to remove the worse than useless menu bar icon. SO frustrating.
