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 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 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.

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