Tell HN: Nearly all of Evernote’s remaining staff has been laid off

Even though Evernote is a competitor, it's still sad to see such a giant in the note-taking space go down so badly. Of course, I am still skeptical about this news and whether its actually true since no source has been linked.

Aside:

I work (and lead the development) on Notesnook, an end-to-end encrypted, open source alternative to Evernote. Since we are based in Pakistan, our pricing has been really competitive at just $4.49/mo (compared to $17.99/mo of Evernote). And best of all, we have one of the best Evernote Importers around: https://importer.notesnook.com/

If you'd like to learn more about Notesnook: https://notesnook.com/

Feel free to ask me any and all questions!

Notesnook looks promising! Does it support note history / versioning?

Yes! Every edit session is saved separately and can easily be restored.

Oh wait, why note history is local only? Can you make it synced as well?

Does it have OCR for images?

As far as I can tell: No, and the roadmap doesn't include anything for adding it. I think it would actually be pretty much perfect for me if it did have OCR.

Also, do you have a plugin so you can save an email directly as a note from desktop Outlook?

I got that one on JustDo.com ; it is more of a tasks/teams management tool. But might fit your usecase.

How is it possible to offer unlimited storage?
