I'm not 100% certain on this, but I think the App Store is the way you have to go for extensions now. I tried a couple other sites that I know have extensions that were available on their websites, but every link I click takes me back to the App Store.

That's right. All Safari Extensions are distributed by the App Store.

The Evernote editor has issues with the complex code behind some web pages

All web clippers have this problem -- that's precisely because web content is so unpredictable.

Evernote's great strength (IMHO) is the ease with which one can store information in it. In most other respects, it is lacking (in search, in organization …) But I digress.

By the way, the fact that the resubmitted web clipper hasn't yet been approved suggests that it has been rejected as well.

Regarding the tone of the discussion, I think there is created a lot of fuss about a very minor aspect. First I do not know any advertisement that promises „Webclipper for each and every browser, yet invented or not, possible or impossible, etc.“.

For crying out loud, we're not talking about Opera, we're talking about there being no web clipper extension for the current version of the default web browser for the Mac OS platform!

Who believed that pruning an outgrown software ecosystem back to its roots and core would be done in a matter of weeks or months underestimates the task at hand. You can not simply do a fresh design from zero, because the world keeps turning, new OS releases keep appearing, users want to get their stuff fixed etc.

So we can believe one of two options:

1) Ian and the pack are sitting there in EN country, counting the bucks rolling in and laughing out loud that these users still stick to the sinking boat, or

2) the team is sincerely working on keeping us happy AND redesigning big parts of the code Basis at the same time

If you are up for Option 1, I honestly think you should prepare to leave the party, and go searching for greener pastures.

If you are (like I am) for option 2, I think it is self inflicted injury to continue with „mimimi“ about the fact that for a couple of days there is no web clipper on one of the several browsers available for MacOS. I have invested my energy instead to get web clipper for Firefox, and am happy clipping and Evernoting ever since. Took me less time to get it up and running than typing this post.

There's an apologist in every crowd. There aren't just two options. 

But yes, given the state of the Evernote clients (lack of significant new features, inability or unwillingness to fix longstanding bugs which are not easy to report given the incompetence of the "Evernote Help and Learning" team), preparing to leave the party seems wise.

I find it both surprising and disappointing that Evernote would allow the Safari Web clipper to simply fall off a cliff.  I purchased the software specifically for this function, and for it to be discontinued with no warning nor explanation is pathetic.

Yes, it is extremely worrisome. The CEO Ian Small is obviously a nice man, but I have always viewed their claims of "fixing the basics" with suspicion since the evidence is scant.

The fact that they had a year to fix the Web Clipper extension instead of waiting until the last minute speaks volumes. Other longtime outstanding bugs (such as the Spotlight Importer crashes in Evernote for MacOS, not seen as a priority according to tech support) remain unfixed as well.

Does the double-tap with three fingers work on the iPhone? Didn't seem to when I tried …

Does Evernote for iOS support Undo (three-finger tap), copy, and paste?

It definitely seems to keep coming up. I have undeleted it and reinstalled it twice now, it has started crashing again in the last few days. I can't believe Evernote hasn't fixed this, I first reported it on a ticket to them in JULY. I too am getting fed up with them.

Yes, indeed. The bug has existed for months, I reported it months ago, and I recently learned that it still hasn't been fixed because it was judged to be "a priority"! I complained once more, and the tech support person said she would raise the priority.

Frankly, I think this is inexcusable.

Yup, it looks like we're back to the same catastrophe. Why the folks at Evernote can't fix this is beyond me.

This still isn't working in 6.10, is it?
