Evernote Lays Off Most of Staff, Triggering Fears of Closure

I forgot Evernote was still a thing. Used it for a short while back in 2012 when there were not many decent note taking apps.
Ever since I discovered LogSeq and Obsidian, I stopped checking out other note-taking software
God I love Obsidian. Especially the community around it.
Obsidian honestly spoiled me with the fact that my vault is literally just a folder of markdown files.
I've been using Zim, because I wanted something that was completely brain-dead simple and also completely not in any sort of "cloud." It's entirely local to my hard drive. It stores its files as a folder of markdown files too.
How non-cloudy is Obsidian? I might take a look at that.
It's completely local unless you specifically opt into cloud options. There is Obsidian Sync but that's completely optional, and your files are still on the computer. I know some people make their vaults Google Drive folders, which, again, is something you have to deliberately do.
100% non-cloud. There are sync options but they are completely optional. No log-in required unless you use the cloud features.
Obsidian in my experience is zim but better (at the cost of being closed source)
I’ve been using Logseq at work and I LOOOOVE it.
LogSeq
I never heard of it until now. I'm a veteran of trying out and dumping so many note taking solutions. I'm certain to try this one, too! Maybe I'll finally find The One.
It’s a timeline approach. So, I just enter notes for each day. I’ve developed a habit of just putting things down when I need, including random stuff, links to Slack conversations, etc. I then use tags to bind things together, and there are a couple of plugins in use.
I installed it and took a quick look. It reminds me of Obsidian's approach. I got excited about that, too, but I found it very burdensome to use in practice. What I need is a sort of life log that grabs a lot of stuff quietly from integrations and that I can then further augment (for things like meeting notes). The problem with all of these graph approaches (for me) is that they become burdensome to manage.
Same! I've become like a walking advertisement for LogSeq at work. Its great
Just started using Logseq and it has been a game changer. All other note apps I‘be used become black holes…notes go in and are never seen again. I can actually find things now with logseq. It’s helping with brain fog and getting my shit together. Can’t recommend it enough
That's pretty much been my experience, as well.
After leaving Evernote way back when I was in the wilderness for a while. Finally landed on notesnook, haven't gone back since.
Fellow Notesnook user, here. I'm enjoying it. It's what Evernote should have been.
Same. Glad I never actually relied on it...
