Foxcolab Notes vs. Evernote
Bloated legacy software & steep price hikes vs. Modern Fast Encrypted Markdown
The Downfall of Evernote: Bloatware, Price Hikes & Stagnation
Evernote has become infamous for drastic price increases, limiting free users to just one device and 50 notes, and an interface weighed down by feature bloat and slow sync times. Notes remain unencrypted on their corporate servers.

Foxcolab Notes represents the modern evolution of note-taking: lightning-fast markdown editing, bi-directional backlinks, true client-side zero-knowledge encryption, and a generous free tier that doesn't hold your notes hostage.
