To solve the mobile issue, my process is very simple: I use OmniFocus which allows me to instantly save a URL, text note, or anything else to my inbox, and then I just process (categorize and save) the new notes each morning before I start working. The problem all single app solutions run into is they just don't scale and grow with you. All you need to do is call the shell scripts from the editor and a light layer of text-editor specific GUI details on top.)Īll of this stuff emerged organically over time based on my needs and the growing complexity of managing more and more information and more complicated tasks. Since most things are written in bash, it’s easy to use any text editor on top.

I.e., these scriptable text editors become a custom note taking environment built to my requirements.

(All of the above can be integrated into any scriptable text editor, e.g., I can use all of these feature from vim, i.e., fuzzy search and open a note, or the same with VS Code (I’m working on building up VS Code over time as a non-modal editor to complement vim). It's essentially like have my own man pages for GUI and CLI apps I use, that just document the features I commonly use. Over time I’ve built a ton of my own features into the system, for example I've built my own documentation system. You can edit them with multiple text editors, for somethings vim is better for others I like iA Writer. E.g., you can use a file manager like the Finder to organize your notes, and you can use tools like grep and diff to search and compare them. But I find the upside is more important: You can build your own features with shell scripts (that can then be integrated into your editing environment), and you can use your notes in many different applications. This has downsides, in particular it's only ok on mobile and lacks integrations.

I'm going back to the legacy version, but i hope to return to 10x version soon because i was enjoying the app so much.I'm a developer, and after going through a series of apps (Yojimbo, Evernote, SimpleNote, Bear, Ulysses), I now manage all my notes in Markdown files, some in git and some synced via iCloud Drive. DEAR ENGINEERS you've released dozens of updates but this hilarious, basic thing still makes we laugh. DEAR ENGINEERS, IMPROVE SPEED of scrolling, AND THEN UP, AND THEN DOWN, AND THEN RIGHT, THEN LEFT. The beauty of Evernote is all about moving from one note to another one. We know that in this subreddit we are the usual toxic trolls who will take advantage of it and criticize EVERNOTE, BUT it is A CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. the scrolling of the notes is the only thing remained that I DON'T LIKE. With the 10x versions, instead, it's VERY SLOW, you can only go HORIZONTALLY, and ONLY when the scrolling works! That because so many times it jams and doesn't work so let's suppose then you move to a note, then to another note, then it STUCKS! (or IT SUCKS) You'll have to re-click the note, so then scrolling down three notes, then it newly stucks! it's instant, you can go up, you can go down, you can go right, you can go left, slow, fast, row by row or a whole column till to the first of all notes within a few seconds. On the legacy version of Evernote, moving between notes IS A JOY. Scrolling down notes with 10x versions is nerve-wracking and frustrating.Īnd in the end it also ends up that you get angry.
