  1. The root of the problem is that EN chose a non-standard shorcut for a widely used activity. Option-Shift-Command-V is the widely-adopted MacOS shortcut for "Paste and Match Style" and respected by the following: Apple Pages Apple Safari Microsoft Word Microsoft OneNote Apple Notes Apple Mail and many more! Therefore, EN is an outlier in the MacOS ecosystem when it comes to the default keystrokes for this particular short cut. The legacy version respects this standard, so this is a relatively recent change by EN. Of course anyone can change their shortcuts, but the point of my critique is that the reason for conventions is to reduce the dissonance when shifting between applications and also when moving from one computer to another. EN, by bucking the convention of this commonly used shortcuts, might have made things easier for some users, but they have made things difficult for others. When push comes to shove, the user experience best practice is that widely-used user interface conventions should be respected unless there is a compelling reason to buck the trend. EN did not do that.
  2. Thank you for providing an efficient workaround! The question remains: why would Evernote choose to violate such a widely used standard MacOS shortcut? Now every time I go to a new Mac, I have to change this shortcut, and I should not have to make an extra effort for a program to follow MacOS conventions for widely-used shortcuts!
  3. My point is not about the disclosure of not including core features in the new version, but about a major new release that is missing key features. Usually this kind of release is kept as beta, not a new version that is trust on the entire user community. What is currently the new version is more appropriately called a beta release compared to best practices in the industry.
  4. HTML export missing? I'm really confused, how could Evernote release a new version with so many features missing that I use every day? It's not appropriate to call this an upgrade, it is a downgrade. Will these features come back soon? Or do I need to figure out how to move my notes to another platform? I am beginning to regret my PREMIUM subscription upgrade.
