- I don't want notebooks or folders anymore. ... I just want to write and forget until I need it again.
5 hours ago, PinkElephant said:You can do today without notebooks: Just stop using them. You can stuff everything into your default notebook, there is no limit to this approach.
My notes are organized with minimal "notebooks or folders"
Evernote actually has no support for folders
instead, organization is based on Tag Methodology, with two fields in the note record; Notebook and Tags -

unless Evernote can somehow stop it
As you reported, Evernote is protecting your account by stopping unauthorized access

Workflows should not be centered on the abilities of a specific tool
How do you feel about the new tasks feature?
It's not supported in Evernote Legacy,
but I've always used simple task notes and tags for task management; quite portable -

Migrating is basically impossible anyway. There is not one migration route that doesn't lead to unacceptable compromises and bring unfixable formatting bugs with it. Tell me if I am wrong.
I didn't find "basically impossible", "unacceptable compromises" or "unfixable formatting bugs"
but it must be realized that some metadata will be lost when migrating to a new platform
(I converted to Devonthink, using the Evernote Legacy product, and without data from the new tasks feature) -

The stricter EU conditions also come with heavy handed and borderline intrusive EU governmental demands.
Would this apply if Evernote continues to be a separate US entity?

You left Evernote but your signature says legacy user. I wonder which it is.
Updated to ex-Evernote Legacy user
>EN offers a free tier and perhaps feel that us paying customers are subsidizing it?
That's my understanding of how it works, with the objective of converting to paying customers
>but wonder how people might abuse the free tier
Using the product with no intention of ever paying

For everyone planning to stick with Evernote (as am I, for now), I'm curious as to how you would response to price increases and curtailment of the "free" tier.
I left Evernote when they converted to the v10 product
For me, it was a lost features issue
I'm tolerant of price increases, but have always thought the "free" tier has been abused by many users
imho New users should get full access for only a limited trial period -

DEVONThink is self hosted ... It needs to be installed and run on a Mac, period.
No, Devonthink provides both Mac and IOS client apps (Apple only)
and data sync between devices
I use the product on my Mac Mini and iPad>The main database AFAIK needs to be hosted on a Mac
No, databases are independent and can be located on any device
Either app/platform can be used independently.
It's true that the Mac app is more full-featured than the IOS app -

I don't have time to remember to back things up & that's not just with EN. I use a backup system for that.
Likewise, with Evernote Legacy on my Mac I have backups scheduled automatically via Applescript
This included full and incremental backups -

What new owner is not going to say ...
No idea what the new owners are going to say,
just as I have no idea what the previous owners say
Did we even know or care who the previous owners were?
I'm more interested in what Evernote's management team says. So far, I've only seen the blog post from Ian Small- 3

Evernote is content with the humble note-centric view of the world. This, by itself, is not a problem.
As a long term Evernote Legacy user; I can work with "note centric"
Sometimes, I need to store a single file, for example a PDF; I can store it as a note attachment file
Sometimes I need a document or a spreadsheet; I use an external editor, and again store it as a note attachment fileMy point is that I use an external editor when I need features beyond simple note editing
I agree with @Dave-in-Decatur's comment, "What is minimal for some is superfluous to others."- 3

start with a 'z' so they'd appear at the bottom
Rename is the process I use; prefix with an "x"
I also use this to archive tags -

4 years here, just tapping 100 notes... I still don't know how you guys managed to even 60k notes...
If nothing else, I create a journal/planner note each morning
Every receipt I receive is scanned and stored as a note -

2. Security concerns over the EN software itself?
3. Security concerns over the fact that users will be parking corporate data on a remote, unapproved, server?Also security concerns that you're giving Evernote access to the data
so it can run the server side stuff; OCR, indexing, ... -

I put all of my notes in a single notebook.
fwiw You can store original notebook name as a tag

Projects Folder, Area Folder, Resource folder and Archive folder.
The equivalent structure in Evernote is Stacks/Notebooks; or Tags

Does v10 keep a database on the computer or just online?
Yes, an offline database copy is maintained.
This is optional via a switch in preferences (Windows/Mac)
or offline notebooks (IOS/Android)- 1

I also make sure my notes have very descriptive titles
My naming standard is yyyy-mm-dd type [details] keywords
keywords are a copy of the assigned tags
Example: 2022-09-10 Receipt [Lunch] aVendor-TimHortons cBudget-FoodDining $4.95 -

@DTLow Could you share how you did this? Thanks!
This was done using scripts
I'm using Evernote Legacy on a Mac; scripting is supported via Applescript- 1

Evernote assigns each note a number
Confirmed; each note is assigned an id #, which matches the link url
Unfortunately the id # is not included when a note is exported
My solution was to append the id# to the note contents; this allowed me connect link urls with the correct note and make the required edits- 1
V10 Absolutely Awful - back to 6.25 for me.
