Absolutely agreed. Note taking done really well would be useful to almost everyone, and they could absolutely dominate that market just as Slack has for chat. IMO if they'd just kept focused on their core app, they could be that right now. Instead focus was diverted in myriad directions, and quality of the core experience suffered. I sincerely hope they manage to 'fail' into a stable company that manages to get bugs under control and then to focus on their core product.

My shorter term hope is that they fix the android app bug that cropped up a couple weeks ago, making notes take 10-30s to open...

You don't think Microsoft Teams might do the same thing to Slack as Microsoft OneNote did to Evernote?

I don't think OneNote did much to Evernote. Evernote did itself.
