I just noticed upon logging in to my Evernote Basic on the Web that Evernote have started to consider a login in the browser to be its own device, which wasn't the case some time ago.

I use Evernote on my phone and personal laptop and do occasionally login on the web at my work computer or at friends’ computers if I need quick access to some note contents.

However, with this update this becomes impossible and I must now paste note contents from my phone through some other app to get it on any computer expect my personal laptop.

I find their premium plan (currently 62 SEK or ~7.50 USD) a month a little to much for the service. A dollar or two would be fine through.

My requirements are pretty much being able to make notes with pictures/screenshots, search in notes, some basic formatting and that it can sync between devices (Android app), but nothing fancy extra on top of that.

Does anyone have any good alternatives to suggest here?

Notion is free. Not exactly the same product, of course. (But in the US, Evernote costs $96/year.)

I think that Evernote's more or less elimination of the free plan will kill the company. There's no reason in 2020 for new users to starting paying money to Evernote. They seem to know they can't compete for new users any longer, so they're going to force as many current users as possible to upgrade from the free plan.

Thanks. I agree about Evernote. Will have a look at Notion. Maybe there are some migration tool. Thanks
