Same. I just canceled my EN subscription; it refreshed right before New EN, and I gave them until renewal to get that working. It’s still garbage and I have completely lost the habit of using it because I can’t revert to the old iOS app and have to use the slow, awkward new one.

I am currently evaluating Joplin as a maybe. It is webshit in an Electron wrapper but I think the only note app that isn’t webshit that I can use to collaborate with my Windows/Android using husband is Microsoft’s; it did a shit job of keeping my formatting last time I tried it, plus I hate the way it wants every note to be a text box floating in an infinite canvas.

I still have to actually check out Joplin’s collaboration, that only seems to work if you’re paying for their sync service instead of using something else.

Joplin also has a plug-in to do what EN couldn’t do in an entire decade: give you a nice diff UI for dealing with conflicting changes.

(My requirements: cross platform collaboration, decent EN import, not be webshit, deal gracefully with notes with PDFs and images in them.)
