With their recent update it seems they are on the last step to making their free version completely useless – are there any good alternatives out there? Preferably something that has a similar android app. I know I could use ssh+vi in a text file, but I’d prefer something a bit more streamlined

    My first idea was to use obsidian as note and pdf app. I did add some metadata to the notes, but I never used them - full text did it for me. Hence the obsidian path.

    There are plugins for obsidian that allow ocr stuff, but I don’t use them. I kind of split my workflow.

      It sounded like from your first post that you were using paperless-ngx for PDF’s now. Do you use it that way or something else?

            If you configure paperless correctly, it will tag your documents based on their content. I told you how I batch exported my pdfs from EN - importing is a whole new story. Tons of docs and howtos around.

              Sorry if I’m being thick, but just to see if I can confirm what you’re describing.

              1. Use Yarl to export export pdf notes from Evernote to obsidian
              2. Find some guide to importing pdf notes from obsidian to paperless-ngx

              Is that correct?
