The purpose of my post was to highlight the lack of export features in Nimbus. Sure it's a great app with great formatting, but without any viable export options you will be stuck in Nimbus. I'm currently without all my notes simply because I'm not in the mood to start copying and pasting nearly 500 notes. I will have to get around to it at some point but right now I can think of a million other things I'd rather do...

It's mostly because I'm an idiot. I have this tendency to move forward so, for instance, once I decided that Nimbus was going to be my note taking app I erased the past. To be fair Nimbus literally had everything I needed until I started receiving those warnings after the 30 day grace period. I wish I had my ENEX file...

I'll start by saying this isn't a pro-Evernote post. I've been looking for viable Evernote alternatives for years and recently went all in with Nimbus Notes. Using a free account, I was very happy with the functionality and formatting options provided and the import from Evernote was excellent. My notes never looked better. Then I started getting a warning about my account using over 10000 blocks and noticed I could no longer edit or add notes. I only had approximately 500 notes so why was I getting a warning about 10000. Well it turns out a block is a "line" in a note and after my 30 day grace period this warning flagged up. In those 30 days I was so happy with the import and editing options that I didn't even consider moving elsewhere and deleted my Evernote account. For some reason the 10000 blocks warning has now been replaced by the "You've reached the 30 notes limit per workspace for free accounts" (see the attached screenshot). This pops up immediately even after I click cancel. Forcing me to pay for Pro. Anyway I decided to migrate away from Nimbus Notes but their only export options are PDF and HTML. PDF is not an option. So I bulk migrated my 500 notes with the HTML option and ended up with 500 zip files. I then extracted all 500 zip files to reveal my 500 HTML files. I dragged and dropped a few of my HTML files into Bear (you have to do this individually) but noticed that I had no "tag" data and no "attachments". Basically my notes are trapped in Nimbus Notes now. So hear are my options: Pay Nimbus Notes to allow me to access my Notes (sound familiar?), Manually copy from Nimbus Notes to Bear. Be very careful with Nimbus Notes. There is something off about this company. They have beautiful import options that support multiple applications but their export options don't exist. Once you're in you better pay them or you will lose access to your data.
