#4Export was easy - now the evernote staff, their neighbours and even their friends can read all our evernotes, just ask them for a copy on the way out!

I use org-mode with Syncthing. It's imperfect, but it's still pretty great — and I own all of my data, which is important.

#6Reminder: most cloud services can do this with your data. They just don't explicitly say so.

#7Like many large tech companies whose business is 100% reliant on free software (eg GNU/Linux) if you happen to prefer to run a free software desktop (say, GNU/Linux) you're pretty much stuffed in terms of native clients.
Nixnote is a great client, and I stuck with it for a few years, but seems to be maintained entirely independently of the mothership.
I realise there's some economies of scale in there, but absent any great contribution code-wise back to the free software community that they rely on, perhaps providing and maintaining a native client would be a well-received token gesture.

I can't recomend Syncthing enough, most "cloud apps" can be replaced pretty effictively by vim, Syncthing, and some obscure unix tool. I will also agree that it isn't perfect but I haven't seen anything better yet.

If you have a Synology NAS, you can use Synology Note Station.

Started to use org-mode recently after seeing its features. Do you have guides you'd recommend for someone learning emacs and org-mode?
