Its acquirer (Bending Spoons) has taken over operations. They’ve also hiked subscriptions prices and told customers they intend to use new revenues to pay for new features. How they intend to do that without any staff is something I would like to know about.
If you’re still using Evernote, probably a good time to stop.
So basically, they are following enshitification same as many companies have been doing.
Soon to be purchased by:
A) Meta
B) Microsoft
C) Alphabet
D) Some venture capital firm nobody who uses a computer daily has ever heard of
Place your bets now people!
How many people had heard of Bending Spoons before they bought Evernote? They’re a software company but I’d never heard of any of their apps before, either.
I only heard of them because I wanted to move to Italy and they were hiring and relocating DevOps engineers.
I didn’t apply but that was first time I heard of them like 2 years ago.
Why would MS be intereted in Evernote? I guess they could incorporate something into OneNote, but what would that be? Are there any technologies worth buying in Evernote?
Higher interest rates mean every company has to be profitable ASAP or they’re deader than bed bath and beyond. Gonna keep getting uglier
