I'd used it since 2010 when I was in University. A good friend recommended it to me.
At some point, I started paying for the service. It was about $3 a month, I think.
After half a decade, I took a hiatus to try out Google Keep. I survived for a year, because I initially didn't have much note taking requirements. But plain-text is messy. And my ideas and notes became more complex and needed some structure to sort it out.
So I went back to Evernote.
But recently there was a tremendous price hike. $10+ a month for US, Canadian, and European (western bloc) users!
If users from the English/Western market are the majority users and are frightened by the pricing, it is not good for the business.
I had to leave Evernote.
What are good choices? I offer you the following:
OneNote - free, traditional note taking app
UpNote - affordable app most similar to Evernote
NotesNook - affordable, privacy-focused app. But unstable and doesn't support checklists
AmpleNote - task / journal app that is v.responsive but doesn't support checklists
Craft - beautiful journal app
I had some additional requirements (which may not be applicable to you):
Web App
Offline Mode
Version History
Checklists which are not Tasks
So I narrowed it down to OneNote - which is my anchor app is everything goes wrong, and Craft - which is my aspirational app if everything goes right.
