Its acquirer (Bending Spoons) has taken over operations. They’ve also hiked subscriptions prices and told customers they intend to use new revenues to pay for new features. How they intend to do that without any staff is something I would like to know about.

If you’re still using Evernote, probably a good time to stop.

I switched from Evernote to Joplin several years ago and haven't looked back. I had over 8,000 notes in Evernote and now have over 11,000 notes in Joplin. I'm using free Dropbox storage for syncing (3GB out of 6GB free) and run Windows, iPad and Android clients. I haven't missed Evernote at any point.
