Believe it or not: this is just what Evernote V10 is doing for me, even in the last weeks most of the time

New notes app has worked flawlessly. Thanks for asking though.

Happy to hear, so why not concentrate on your new notes app? Havn't they got a forum you can contribute to?

Does this dumpster fire of a forum have any admins? It’s like the failures run rampant for everything attached to this app 🤣

Could it be that your personal "better working EN-Alternative" is out of service or so boring that you come by here for trolling, insulting and spreading poison and bad vibes in several threads instead of contributing worthful content and helpful advice?

If they’re on this forum, they’re already experiencing issues. I don’t need to convince them. I guess you forgot where you were for a minute. 

Blah blah blah…

Today as well no captcha to pass for me (in German). May be it is / was a temporary localised issue, from Monday to Tuesday? 

As written it only occured with the Mark tile in Pictures test. Test could be passed with audio Version.

Last two weeks? Wow you really scratched the surface there didn’t ya. 
By all means proceed with the circle jerking.  

Wow - what worthful comment..

How do you manage your trolling sessions? Have you set a daily reminder to come by here an leave some sh... or ist it just an impulse you can't control?? If I look in your comment-timeline it looks like a kind of tourette-collection without any helpful content.

If I'm not wrong you have made your decision an left EN some time ago? So why do you spend your time here and bother us?

I finally got in with kind of workaround: optical recaptcha-test for login at EN-Webbrowser didn't work till the end. I finally passed the I-am-no-robot-test when I changed to audio test (with sometime bad to understand audio of random-word-phrase wich had to be rewritten in an text box.)

O.k. - safety matters, but this tends to logout users...

Did you try in a guest profile just in case extensions/other things are messing around with it?

No, never needed any guest profile during the last 10 years…

What's the captcha?  I got a little car with a barely visible track and instructions to put a dot at the end of the track.  Took me a while to work out which end...

Captcha in my case looks like: select all pictures with car, motorbike or othe objects … in a 4x4 (...edited)  area. Sometimes very small, sometimes very big with one single object (and very tiny parts onnother tiles…)

ad/tracker/cookie blockers

Shouldn’t be a problem and necessary: (chrome-) browser is running in a linux-based emulated windows system, starting everyday new and empty. So ad tracker and cookies ain‘t be a problem for my admins…

Nothing new or changes since the last 2 years on browser side, only new aspect is the captcha-check by EN since today.

So far Captcha-check works / worked on other sides (as far as I remember ..)

As written in title I can‘t open web-version of EN today.

EN obviously has added new robot check with captcha. Issue is that there seems to be something missing / broken:

No matter how often and curiously I try - everytime I get a new captcha - so no login possible…

EDIT:

• ticket submitted at https://help.evernote.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
• Browser: Chrome (at work by admin no second browser available…)

think that OneNote and Joplin are the closer ones right now

There are no closest alternatives to Evernote, at least not for everyone.

Every Solution has it‘s pros and cons, it strengths and weaknesses.

What fit‘s you best depends on your use case, your data types and structure and philosophy of use, your technical environment, devices and conditions (Apple only? Windows only? Local only or as well mobile? Cross plattform, with need for frequent and fast sync? With Android or Linux? Do you trust or have to rely on online services? Partly working in restricted conditions with only access to web version? Want to organize your data strictly local and safe on your one - including backups? What need for speed? How should search work and look like? How about linking and backlinks? Need for visualisation of relations/graphs. Do you need a proper and easy, allways there clipping and sharing solution? Want to do some scripting and automating?)

Depending on your answers, you may want to look in DevonThink, on OneNote, Joplin, Obsidian, Google Keep, Apple Notes Dropbox Paper or whatever else. And you may have to use workarounds or additional solutions and services to replace „your“ Evernote. And still there may be gaps to except…

That is the reason why lots of us think best alternative to Evernote Legacy might still be Evernote v.10 - once the actual issues will be solved.

heebie-jeebies. (Was heisst das auf Deutsch?)

@Dave-in-Decatur: No exact 1:1 translation. Something like „gemischte Gefühle“, in the sense of „Schaudern“ or „Gruseln“ (each of this verbs used as nouns)

Just delete the wrong numbering / toggle numbering off and then write „7.“ followed by space. This should restart numbering environment starting with 7.

I believe they are actually doing that. 

Just like me: I am deeply convinced they are working on this with highest priority. But every solution and fix has to be tested and run through QA before being rolled out to avoid nasty surprises like we were confronted with lately. This ist the reason why the average time between two releases formerly was at least 3 weeks, lately - with BS-staff - tending to 5 weeks.

This on the other hand demands patience and trust on our side. Doesn’t help to cry loud for instant fixes…

Unfortunately this is another big plus for legacy: not at all affected by not finally tested and QA‘d updates to v10 app-versions for Windows or Mac 😜 (just working, for the time being…)

Maybe they will soon have to ask ex-staffers to come back.

I would not expect this:

BS seems to have managed most of the first big issues with RTE-sync after introducing in May without staff layed off in February - as told operating from Italy. So they might trust in their own crafts and no big chances for turning the wheel back. After all they have to build and establish their own strategy and philosophy for future Evernote which will not be bound to strong on the past.

the Obsidian enex plugin should import  properly without manual intervention afterwards...

Surely - but my impression is: the Obsidian enex-import-plugin is a private programmed simplified version of Yarle. And Yarle is no Obsidian only tool but rather a flexible converter to markdown for different purposes… 

So in some cases there may still be some work to do for optimizing markdown-import/export for Obsidian.

1 hour ago, eric99 said:

attachments are not embedded into the note and/or the attachments links are not working

This shouldn‘t be a difficult problem to solve. How did you import/ convert to markdown? With yarle there are lots of options which will end in different structures. Simple inner embedded links in Obsidian to files with unique names by default will look like ![[filename.extension]].

If links don’t look like this you could use an editor like notepad ++ to replace and change links with regular expressions to this format in all files of a folder.

other solution might be to use the new  enex plugin of Obsidian or to run a second try withe yarle with other options…

Edit: advantage of Yarle is that you can define an use a template for the final markdown file. With template you can define a yaml-frontmatter for metadata wich you can use later for very flexible filtering and reporting with the extraordinary dataview-plugin. (See: https://github.com/blacksmithgu/obsidian-dataview)

If I look at Obsidian prices, it is similar or even more expensive than EN Pro. No sync at all without a subscription, for example.

For a price level decision this is absurd. If the own use cases are better supported would be a different reason to switch - but subscription price doesn’t look like a saving, based on similar features.

Obsidian does have lots of pros - depending on personal use-cases (where I love it for - for special purposes).

But there are as well some cons (once again depending on use cases):

• Obsidian sync is nearly on same price level as EN Pro (but may be avoided with some nerdy workarounds using github or cloud-storage and 3-party-sync)
• Obsidian also ist Electron-based: So for working with Obsidian the hole workspace has to be loaded for each collection of notes, attachments, plugins etc. If you are working local and running Obsidian in background this ist a one-time job. But if you are on mobile opening and loading obsidian may take some time - in some cases every time you change apps - not always fluent work... And: The more content you put in Obsidian the bigger the workspace to load will be. Dividing and organizing notes in different vaults may reduce loading time. Therefore you have to switch vaults for opening notes with other main-topics.
• And by the way: no integrated webClipper , no direct email-forwarding

But sure: simple-file and folder system with Mardown pure, accessible and editable with every simple note-editor

Clipping and sharing articles no longer work.

see this thread and Evernote staff info: 

This is already discussed in another thread. There is as well at least a first reaction by Evernote Staff.

It currently depends whether you open a note created before May 2023 for the first time, or not.

Older notes need to be converted to the RTE data structure. This is a one time action, shouldn’t repeat itself when the note is opened a second time.

As reported somewhere else today: I have reasons not to believe that this is a case for one time conversion: notes editet and converted yesterday with web-app had to be saved, converted and waited for once again today (after new login with new bult cache).

May be that notes wich have been converted and are stored to local cache load faster, but if you lose cache, the converting process starts again?

I will say that 60 seconds every time seems extra long. Are there any other things happening on the computer that could be soaking up processor time?

This in my case (with Web-App on Windows) isn't extra long but rather the new evernote average (web-) standard.

PLUS: Conversion to RTE-structue obviously seems not to allways be a one-time-prozess...
As far as I can see notes converted in the web-app yersterday need to be converted again today with the same or similar delay - at least if the web-app for security reasons is forced to be logged in and load and build cache new every day).

This means: In average no fast access to thousands of notes may them be long, complex or very simple unformatted text.

May be RTE needs and works with only temporarily converted notes in cache? Could this be the reason why every note displays saving-info in the lower right corner on opening, even before loading?

This would make the sync-issues EN ist working with far bigger..

To be clear: there is no disturbing extra process running which could cause the delay, just a question of communication with web-frontend and EN-Server.
(An yes, I know: Issues may be smaller while working with windows- oder apple-app, but conversion and sync should be requested if working with frequently different devices like me.)
