Thanks for the warning @Wanderling Reborn. I do use many attachments but I am not concerned about their renaming. I prefer renaming to total loss... (I still did not hear ANYthing back from Evernote support... nothing at all after 2d....)
Picking the right solution is definitely a trade-off and I reacted here mainly because I am sad to see how the Evernote potenital is not pushed further and declines for years. I also shocked to see "enterprise" solution pushed where the infra to support those need is far from being met.
I understand and respect that some users are OK with what happens. I understand that some users never lost any notes. I did not lose any note, until that happened....
In the end, I did not lose any data because I had backups. But I paid Evernote precisely to take care of that and they did not. Mistakes can happen and it is more about HOW the issues are solved. In my case, the issues remains totally unsolved and I am in the dark.
In the meantime, FOSS solutions such as Joplin are making great progress and already address many of the issues I grew with Evernotes' strategical decisions.
But honnestly the ONE killer for me is security (or the lack of...). No one (not Evenote, not Joplin, not anyone...) can garranty 0 breach. Breaches did happen and will happen again. When that happens, the question is about what is in place to mitigate the issues... Joplin offers E2E (optional) and self hosting (users can mix and match). Evernote was breached already but nothing changed at all.... Users still had the option to NOT put some of their notes online with Local Notebooks. That was a fair mix to me as I kept sensitive data locally only. With Local Notebooks gone, that means users **have** to put everthing online, and users cannot use any (serious) form of encryption. This is calling for troubles...
I don't doubt that Evernote remains an ok solution (despite being much slower than it used to be) for people just clipping the web or tracking notes that are not critical. Users who don't fitting this profile may or not see it come but they are for a surprise sooner or later unless Evernote wakes up... I don't wish for troubles it but it is healthy for users to read between the lines of marketing and advocates and I perfer to be "gone" before issues happen.
