Well, the plot thickens... Beaten with the ransom stick again today.
Just received another "Pay tf up!!" update from Evernote team this time coming for my web app version!
So up until today, I was able to use the evernote web "upgraded" version in my iMac browsers... however now they just downgraded my experience to use the old desktop version, since I'm using the legacy .apk on my phone.
They want me to pay up Or Else!
I used to be able to access https://www.evernote.com/client/web?login=true... which gave me the dark theme version...
But today, I'm now being redirected to https://www.evernote.com/Home.action?login=true... which does not offer the dark theme experience or home screen.
Unbelievable. but I guess I'm not surprised since clearly this is the path this dev team is moving the business.
Used to get all the updates for free just for being a loyal user. I guess that value has now diminished to an all time low.
Perhaps it's time I look into some of the note app alternatives other folks have mentioned... what a colossal 180.
