ok, will be closing thread.
its still not ideal... I've had to change the way i do things due to significant lags with simple tasks like creating and moving notes.
but there are some improvements.
I'll stick with it for now.
thanks.

ok, an update.

Evernote operations have noticeably improved since complete database reinstallation.
Some operations are still not as snappy as legacy... e.g. creating a new note, moving notes, etc. ... but it is pretty good...
But several operations are much better... e.g. syncing between devices seems instant, searches are quick, etc.

All in all, my years long concerns upgrading from Evernote legacy have somewhat been relieved.

Regarding tags... I use tags as a database.
As ferol mentioned above, I have a tag list for clients, a tag list for projects, a tag list for support tickets, for concepts for development etc.
This is just the way i found worked for me way back when... and I've been waiting for evernote to tell me that I've reached its tag limit... hopefully this doesn't happen anytime soon!
 

Thanks for the suggestion,
I'll test this out on one of my laptops and let you know how it goes.
 

Thanks for all the feedback...
To provide a bit of nuance regarding the "operations are still too slow".

I'm impressed with the speed of searching... tag searches, text searches etc.
I guess i have a fairly large information archive (86k notes, 30k tags, see info below)...
This is improved from legacy... and is really quite good.

It's the basic operations that i find far too slow...
Simply creating a new note (ctrl+alt+N) takes several seconds... 
Or moving a note from one notebook to another is also quite slow...

I've adjusted some of my workflow to accommodate this.
So for now, its workable.

Having tested v10 of evernote a year or 2 ago, i assumed it would be impossible. I recently reviewed many alternatives (obsidian, notion, logseq, heptabase, bear, amplenotes,  nimbusnote, joplin etc. etc... but nothing was quite right for my workflow... So i guess its good enough not to jump ship... for now.  But I'd still stick with Evernote legacy if it continued to be available.

great- thanks.

I have only uninstalled & reinstalled Evernote.
I did not delete local data and get it to redownload everything.
Is this advisable?
 

I've recently upgraded to evernote v10... because support for legacy is ending.

It is much better than the version i tested around 2021... so that's good news....
BUT there are operations that are still too slow.

• Creating a new note
• Moving notes between notebooks
• nesting tags
• etc.

are there any tips to improving the responsiveness of these operations?

I do remember very early on with evernote... say < 2013.... it was also very slow.
After uninstalling and deleting all local evernote info... then reinstalling... made the problem go away... back then...

Is this the case now?

Hi,

Evernote version 10 is a totally different product.
Vital functions are missing which i cannot do without... and its unbearably slow.
This is a totally different product that i do not want.
Will the REAL evernote come back, or will you be sticking with this new not-quite-evernote product?
How long will the evernote legacy be available?? There are about 50 evernote clones that are more like evernote than this new product. I need time to migrate.
