Monofurioso

A few months ago, I cancelled Evernote after being a paid subscriber since 2008. The app tranformed from my absolute favorite, most reliable, highly evangelized, to a train wreck for my VERY basic usage. Literally all I do is create text or HTML formatted notes and occasionally a picture. The Evernote forum seems the perfect spot to list viable alternatives since it's chock full of unhappy Evernote users. Protip: Turning on Ignore for most anyone (some exceptions) with over 1000 posts on the Evernote forum will greatly reduce the bickering as you search for constructive conversations about alternatives. https://discussion.evernote.com/ignore/ Use it liberally.

This happened to be the straw that broke the camels back for me.

15 years for me, since 2008. I've also cancelled. It was good while it lasted.

That's a strawman. Buying powerful hardware with current overkill performance is totally different than unrealized software features promised or even unrealized hardware potential w/ promises to unlock performance with drivers etc.

I have a Ryzen 7950x, 32GB DDR5 6000, an Nvidia 4090 (not that GPU is relevant) and blazing fast 4tb NVME drives on gigabit Internet. Evernote is a dog at the moment.

If there's any maxim about technology, it's to use and pay for what is available NOW, not what is promised in the future. Evernote, as I use it, has had performance plunge off a cliff over the last few years, and the RTE introduction has perched the cliff over a canyon. There are now options that simply didn't exist a couple of years ago that fill my needs. Importing my Evernote notebooks into Upnote last night, the performance reminded me of the old Evernote. So good. Debating between that or Joplin, since we use a family OneDrive account and I can easily sync via OneDrive. Most of the features of Evernote are lost on me. I do simply use it for notes, images and don't even need searchable PDFs.

As a Personal subscriber (since 2008) who does not use Evernote for collaboration, the performance hit of RTE has totally bummed me out w/ Evernote. It's been my #1 app on PC & mobile since forever, but man I didn't need or ask for this. I get it. Products and businesses evolve. I am simply not headed in the same direction. I've had text only notes take over a minute to load for the 1st time, on a blazing fast PC & Internet connection. Not acceptable, and RTE is useless for my purposes. Sorry, not the place for rants, but what a drag to realize it's time for an alternative.

I've been a subscriber since 2008, but I may finally be reaching the end of the road w.Evernote. I have some notes that take a minute to convert if that's what's going on. VERY annoying, and I'm on a very fast PC with gigabit Internet. Is it possible to tell Evernote on initial setup to cache AND convert all notes locally so I don't have to wait for each note to sync & convert as I access them individually?

I'll add to this as well. I cannot login to Evernote on my Galaxy S10. I enter in my Goggle Authentification code (after username and password) and instantly get a 'cannot login, possible bad internet connection) error. I tried dozens of times to no avail. I could login iv via web w/ 2FA no problem. Other 2FA apps were connecting just fine on the phone. Finally, I disabled 2FA on Evernote and was able to log straight in. Definitely some issue w/ the current Evernote app on Android.
