Hi,
this is the first time I write on this blog. I'm using extensively evernote since few years.
I also find the new interface pretty irritating.
It is slow and not reliable, the old one was much more user friendly.
tagging was better at the top of the note close to the notebook button
the change notebook button is now smaller, every time I have to look for it
the sidebar does not report anymore note counts for tags and notebooks, to view note counts it is necessary to access the specific interface for notebooks and tags
etc
I could not find one single advantage in the new interface.
I am also considering to change platform
Hope this feedback helps.
