The idea is to make my Evernotes available in Obsidian in markdown. I have started the migration of material out of Evernote in earnest. But after 11 years of Evernote, the Green Elephant is no longer in my room, and another single point of failure and the final silo that part of my workflow depended upon is now gone. Even if I hadn’t touched Evernote in over 8 months, even if I had exported everything and double checked that it worked, there still was some lingering sense of dread of the finality of punching the delete button.

This February I exported all my Evernotes and started bringing them into my growing collection of mark down text files, with Obsidian as a viewer. Last year July when I started using Obsidian, I almost immediately realised and quickly experienced how it opened up space for me to finally ditch Evernote. Ever since I removed Gmail and other Google services back in 2016, Evernote was next in line, but harder to get rid off. Photo by me, London 2012, license CC BY SA
