Lol, tried them about 10 years ago, wasn't impressed.

They're still around, and think this is a good move? So many other, WAY better notebook apps.

MS OneNote works well on all platforms (except Linux!) for several years now, and blows Evernote away (it's my Achilles heel).

And now apps like Joplin, Obsidian, etc, are closing fast on OneNote (and even better in some ways), and can sync with tools like Syncthing.

re: OneNote

Although not a replacement for OneNote on Windows 10/OneNote in Microsoft 365, you can get Waydroid and run OneNote's Android app with it.

I don't have a stylus so I'm not able to check if everything works, but if it does, it'll hopefully feel better than the web client, which wasn't able to keep up with stylus strokes last time I checked. The number of pens is lacking though, even the iPadOS version is better...

I've always run the full desktop app on Windows (Office 2016 at this point). Pretty sure it supports writing/stylus.

I'm always waiting for the other shoe to drop, when MS borks something with Onedrive so I can't sync with this old version any more. Fortunately that will only impact mobile devices, my laptop/pc's will continue to sync with each other.

They're clearly pushing us away from full desktop apps, wanting us to use 365/SaaS instead. No thanks. Web apps/UWP suck.
