  1. Cannot use either or any such plugin. Most don't deterministically save anything on Evernote. Removing. Returning to the entire keep appealing to Evernote to make it more robust. More first principles HTML editor it has to be. Web client is currently unusable for the last two years ( for the latest version ). Sincere appeal for Webassembly for offline content and delete based cloud undo.
  2. I'm trying this one: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/autofill/nlmmgnhgdeffjkdckmikfpnddkbbfkkk Had to enable an option called: Back up text fields larger than: 30 chars It seems to be working ( in it's manner but certainly not ideal ). It saves the entire body of the text if larger than 30 chars and one can see it in the plugin. Even then, the undo really feature needs to be in the cloud. Maybe Evernote can think of a feature called 'delete based undo only cloud' which stores deletes ( that too multiple deletes as one undo ).
  3. Do you have details of this browser extension? Even though the notes that have disappeared were days old and well synced, I will give that a try.
  4. Just happened to me for another note. The undo feature has to be a cloud based feature. Otherwise lots of work can get lost.
  5. I see that Evernote, the company is now Bending Spoons. Which is great as they are located globally and can probably experience what it is like for users located where the data centre isn't. Apart from what has already been discussed, one could do with an async api ( and yes, the beginnings of a set of third party or developer community maintained clients ) or some use of webassembly for the offline online content reconciliation. Yes, one may even chose to simply disable the ability for multiple clients to connect if they feel that they'll mostly be using one location to connect and the entire 'editing same note from multiple locations' use case ( and resultant ecosystem complications ) can be avoided. Or even locks on a note granularity from a location. And yes, an option to disable auto save and keep the note well saved in offline and online draft stage before saving wouldn't go amiss. After all that HTML is being displayed on the internet if the note is shared, so a draft makes sense. And for my pet peeve, Delphi, what is the average time it takes you to take out your phone and make a quick note? Meant to be bread and butter for note taking apps. So another appeal for a Matrix like ecosystem for Evernote. Lastly fonts and images are not an afterthought, do refer to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Links_(web_browser) for aliased fonts and dithered upscaled image display. So that the same content is displayed better. HTML is very important. Javascript is less so ( and causes more difficulty than good ) for what should be most web pages but certainly for HTML content such as this ( which most certainly doesn't save any Javascript ). And even more lastly, the Wikipedia editor model isn't too bad. Neither is LibreOffice, create wonderful docs and 'Save to Evernote' ( should have the ability to keep editing the content in LibreOffice ). And very very lastly, RTF is not so bad, with bold italic fonts etc and adding images. One can even think of quick notes in RTF format. Yes, the same 'take your phone out and make a quick note' use case. That would mean that the notes are an actual file-system, like RTF, HTML, MHT/MHTML/EML where tags become a feature of the file-system because that is a good thing going. Cheers.
  6. It seems Notes versioning is a premium feature. So that note is lost. Yes, I have observed various such interventions that occur usually in the name of security, some web service going down or trying to parse a URL in the note for smarts. Most of them result in a 'Note was/cannot be saved', sometimes loss of data. Yes, I have actually seen the cursor jump around often I guess trying to parse the HTML and the like. It's not in your face but there are some smarts going on at least in the name of security and parsing HTML. I tried switching ( now ) to the latest, it's taking anywhere between 2-6 seconds just to see the note ( in the right pane ) after clicking on the note header ( in the left pane ). The editor has to have a way of reconciling the offline content with the online content if there is a network switch or the like. I'm sorry, the latest version is showing the same problem it always did. This seems like a dead end, pursuing this framework. Do note, that this problem has been going on for the last 2 years or so. It is clear that the .NET framework only works on Windows and is an outright liability on other platforms. Switching to penultimate version. It doesn't have the timing issues ( where it is trying to find a note forever ) and has worked fairly well for months till this issue today. Delphi is not a was, it's just a component in Delphi, that HTML element. Please do consider it. It's a sorry sight to see such potential going to waste. One can even think of a 'Save' button ( while the auto save works too and while the offline content is saved in the browser cache and is reconciled without issues if there are network issues ). I don't know what cross platform was mentioned by Boot17 and what is meant by consistent UI and UX. Delphi is native. There are no runtime issues. One should use async. And cross platform. I'm not too sure what this platform means by 'OnContentEdit' or 'OnTouch' events, but it seems to be doing too much ( as in the movements are like thick and sticky as if hundreds of such events are being triggered ) for the auto save feature which is not necessary. And it's a known fact that there simply is nothing that's WYSIWYG apart from Delphi. Yes, just drag and drop components. I'm told Evernote is a listed ( or similar ) company. They should not be stuck because of a .NET framework that has a stated objective of not allowing other operating systems to work.
  7. That sounds unfortunate. I really have to draw your attention at least to clicking on a note in the latest version of the web client and seeing how much time the note comes up in. In the penultimate version it's almost immediate, like an app. In the latest version, it can be a second, or two or three.
  8. Hi there, I'm using Evernote web client to connect. A note that I added information for the last one hour completely disappeared on me. Except for the subject, the entire note is empty. I have encountered such strange issues quite a few times over the years and it seems that the web client is a bit of an afterthought. Is it time to consider versioning of the notes? I know it will take up a more space but one would not be at the whim of what is essentially an AI race condition where it looks like any number of semi autonomous AIs purporting to help type and support the PC in general could be involved in this. Also to confirm, I'm still on the penultimate version of Evernote web client because the current version, well, just doesn't perform to the mark when clicking on a note or conducting any activity at all. There is a serious concern as to where this may be going. Also why doesn't the developer team actually take a look at the .net for linux runtime environment and see if they can get something going. I'm told that it is one of the least of their concerns given the numbers but the Mono runtime is meant to be an offering and why shouldn't apps work on that? And the HTML saved by Evernote will be the better for it ( by seeing how linux sees it ), because as it stands, RTF is more of a better term for it. I sincerely hope the best for Evernote, even though it has slowly been killed on the web client front simply due to the horrible runtime environment. You must be aware that an HTML component is a drag and drap component in Delphi and the code will work on Apple Mac, Linux, PC, iphone, Android, even servers with a little amount of effort. One simply needs to think of an Evernote Lite kind of setup written in Delphi and ask for AI to help you and you should be up and running with 101% of the functionality in no time. Maybe skip the Windows version so as not to confuse the users and use the Delphi version for everything client. Server is too difficult even for Delphi at the moment. Kind regards
  9. Is this the 'Whatever' software for Linux?
  10. I cannot access the web client. Is anyone else experiencing these issues? This has happened multiple times today.
  11. Yeah no such issues on the "Second Last version". But the latest version ( with and without version 10 enabled ) and the Classic version are completely unusable. Both using a VPN and without a VPN. Basically it should read: "Evernote Web is all new! Try it now.Go back to classic version | Go to new version" That means that the "Second last version" is in use. Very delicately poised. If they force a premature upgrade or the like. Thanks.
  12. Yeah, disabling the Brave shield seems to be working. And I was able to log a ticket with the Evernote developers. Although this has happened in the past. Disabling Brave shield let Evernote web work on Brave Linux. Although that joy was usually short lived for the next few weeks or so before the website started showing the "suspicious login" message again. And one would have to switch to Chrome to access the site. It's probably both the browser and server that are playing games with each other. Else the text: "suspicious login" from the server wouldn't be bandied around so much.
  13. Disabling the Brave shield for evernote.com seems to be working. There were though some messages about suspicious login. Although this has happened in the past. Allowing access when the Brave shield is disabled. But in a few days the suspicious login message comes back. I'll monitor and let you know.
  14. So Evernote web is physically disallowing the Brave browser from accessing Evernote. Hence the: login.error.suspicious message. No technical reason has been provided so that Brave can perhaps do better ( if at all it was doing something questionable, like redirecting websites or something ). Any help forwarding this request to Evernote developers so they can remove the "non technical Brave block" is welcome. Or at least give a statement that they have made a corporate decision to disallow Brave browser from accessing the site.
  15. Nope. It's been a year and Evernote web is still not working on Brave on Linux. It's working on other browsers like Chrome for Linux https://www.evernote.com/Login.action?err=true&message=login.error.suspicious ===== This page isn’t working www.evernote.com redirected you too many times. Try clearing your cookies. ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS ====== The suspicious login message implies that it has an issue with the Brave browser itself Tried: - Clearing cookies - Private window with no prior cookies and no extensions Did not try: - Brave on Linux on separate machine. Don't have another machine. Do help in any manner possible or perhaps forward the concern to developers. Any other user with the same ongoing error on Brave ( on or not on Linux ) will go a long way. UPDATE: Brave on Apple does not appear to have the same issue on the login page. Apparently it's a Brave on Linux issue with a sample size of 1 ( and another user experience posted here). TIA
