Used to use Evernote 10+ times per day. Now it's a few times a week at most. Seems the product has stayed stagnant for a while now.

- arghbleargh 11y agoInteresting that engagement seems to be waning from a lot of Evernote users (based on this anecdatum and the article). Is it because the product has gotten actively worse, or do you find less need to use it these days (e.g. you realized it was more hassle than it was worth)?
- dylanjermiah 11y agoNot worse, just not any better. The use case was, for me, fragmented into many other services. Evernote was sort of my second brain before, not any more.
- fsloth 11y agoWhat services do use instead of Evernote?
- zero-rated 11y agoI switched to Nimbus Note: https://nimbus.everhelper.me/note.php https://nimbus.everhelper.me/note.php
- PhasmaFelis 11y agoFor me, it's definitely gotten worse. They've gone from a relatively tightly-focused product to one that does a million different things badly. That, and they lost a bunch of my data, and then waited three goddamn weeks before responding to my ticket. I submitted it on New Year's Eve, so I would have understood if it took a couple of days, but January 20th is completely unacceptable.
- smsm42 11y agoI'm using it daily for several years now and I don't mind it doesn't have tons of new features. I don't need tons of new features, I need it doing what I use it for - organizing and storing random bits of information.
- PhasmaFelis 11y agoIt does have tons of new features. That's the problem for me. They keep adding chat and sharing and geotagging and collaboration and all kinds of crap that is completely unrelated to actually storing notes.
- smsm42 11y agoI agree, that sounds like a loss of focus and annoying. I usually ignore such things as chats, etc.
