notalentgeek 2 Posted March 4, 2016 Share Posted March 4, 2016 I guess the title is self explanatory. I have subscription with Dropbox of which offer better flexibility for me if I can host my own notes in Dropbox instead of using Evernote's cloud service. Link to comment
Level 5* DTLow 5,736 Posted March 4, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted March 4, 2016 I don't think its workable. It might be an interesting exercise for one of you Window users to relocate your .exb file to a dropbox folder. - It may work - you've now bypassed the Evernote cloud for your Window devices but not helpfull for access on any other platforms. - I can see one benefit - local notebooks would be replicated to each Window device. Note: This will be in parallel with the Evernote cloud. You can't turn off the sync service. I wonder how Dropbox handles sync conflicts? Link to comment
notalentgeek 2 Posted March 4, 2016 Author Share Posted March 4, 2016 Do we actually owns our notes or it is Evernote's? And sadly, I am a Linux user, there is no way for me to own my notes in local drive. Link to comment

Am I correct in guessing that you're currently accessing your notes via Evernote Web? If yes. you're out of luck. You could look at some Linux apps that supposedly work with Evernote - they may have some export features. Otherwise, its only the Windows or Mac apps where you can export your notes in html format.

I have been using Evernote for like three years or so, but I never get any clue when will Evernote get better editor environment either for native Linux or at least a decent web application. So I am thinking it is time for me to look for alternative, but I could not left thousands of my note in Evernote. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 11,652 Posted March 7, 2016 Level 5* Share Posted March 7, 2016 Hi. @notalentgeek - You might be interested in these links on Evernote clones http://sourceforge.net/projects/nevernote/files/NixNote2%20-%20Beta%202/ http://www.quora.com/Is-there-a-software-that-allow-me-to-use-Evernote-on-Linux http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-interesting-third-party-evernote-clients-linux-mac/ As for exporting existing notes, you might be better off talking to other users/ the developers of your chosen clone - when you find one.
