Anyone using this as an Evernote replacement?

I use Evernote since what, 2005, 2008? Yet I hate every time I start it up. Such ugly bloatware it has become. And the silly “AI powered” features tacked on when it became fashionable… Man, replacing it would feel so good.

I use Joplin since I left Evernote. They have an import for evernote https://joplinapp.org/

I replaced Evernote with Joplin about 5ish years ago. It was super easy in my case, so maybe it's worth checking into. I haven't used the desktop app recently, but it was always snappier than evernote at the very least.

I use Obsidian for note-taking and personal knowledge management. I haven't used "save for later" bookmarklets or apps since I quit using Evernote many years ago, though.

If people are interested it was featured hear on HN a day or two ago but Obsidian released an extension called Obsidian Clipper that can save webpages in markdown format. https://github.com/obsidianmd/obsidian-clipper

I use it when I need to get a table or something from a webpage. Works really well for small stuff.

I didn't know this existed for obsidian! This is perfect for me. Thanks for sharing

Can this plugin work for Chrome on Android? Does anyone have a recommendation for bookmarking and/or webclips on Android?

- Pocket for bookmarking. - Onenote for longer form less structured note taking on copied/linked base material or needing exposition (somewhat reluctantly). Occasionally Word. - Anything/Jetbrains : Markdown for short form or dev docsor with intuitively clear sub-structure or heirarchy. (Pseudo)Code and comments for simple codable ideas, python-like. - Scapple for mind-mapping high level concepts, collections of related ideas or things, associations rather than hierarchies

Not sure hoarder is a direct replacement for evernote. As a former long time evernote note user I replaced it with https://notesnook.com

I use it exactly that way and publish an RSS feed of my archives: https://enlace.space/~erik/rss.xml
