yarle VS siyuan

FWIW, I exported all my Evernote notebooks just recently from my old free account. Used https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert them to Markdown. It also has support for various PKB formats, like Obsidian. Hope that helps!

I then used a 3rd-party tool called YARLE (Yet Another Rope Ladder from Evernote) to convert each .ENEX file into a folder of .md files and a folder of linked attachments.

https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle to convert to Obsidian MD.

Using https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle you will dump all your evernote notes in md format in a directory. You will open the directory as a vault.

Here's how to do it:

1. Download the legacy Evernote v.6.25.3.x. Evernote has removed it from their website but you can get it at FileHippo. Download this now - I downloaded 6.25.3.9348 and used it, but now it's gone from FileHippo... not sure why. https://filehippo.com/download_evernote/6.25.1.9091/

2. Follow the undocumented trick for downloading all notebooks at once. This will preserve tags as well. Archived here: https://archive.ph/XDnqN - scroll down to KoZz's comment posted on "Tuesday at 11:53 AM".

3. Then if you want to move to Obsidian, use YARLE but note the template that automatically loads doesn't work (it has spaces and breaks other rules). https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

4. Template block definitions here: https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle/blob/master/Templates.m... FWIW, I used this as my template (paste in the "Set Template" window for YARLE):

    {content-block}{content}{end-content-block}

Have You tried this? https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

There's a tool called Yarle, aka "Yet another rope ladder from Evernote" that helps you migrate your data to Markdown:

I was never a big Evernote user, but I did use Yarle to migrate some old Evernote data to Obsidian.

That's why I developed Yarle, The ultimate converter for Evernote to Markdown. It is platform-independent, it has UI, no installation requited, supports conversion to standard markdown, or special cases like Obsidian, Logseq or Tana. You could give it a try by downloading it here: https://github.com/akosbalasko/yarle

Download and use a tool like Yarle.

Try SiYuan Note. It's free and open source local-first mix of Notion and Obsidian.

SiYuan Note. https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan

Siyuan - GPL Licensed - Probably the most advanced personal note/knowledge management app on the market - blows Joplin, Obsidian, Logseq out of the water: https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan

SiYuan, open source and I believe cross-platform, has a lot of awesome features (https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan)

Do you know of https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan? It's not Markdown though, and English documentation is somewhat lacking. But it's *much* more performant than Logseq.

Here's a plug for SiYuan (I'm not affiliated with at all and I'm still using Obsidian): It's like Logseq but much more performant: 100% local, FOSS, block-based, PDF support, etc. You can write long form or in bullet point freely. The downside is it's not markdown but in plain text JSON. The other side of the coin is that much for easier to do "basic" thing such as merging table cells, fully WYSIWYG, etc. Another major downside is very barebone English documentation.

SiYuan - https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan

https://github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan - have a poke around. A good number of things is in English but the community that surrounds it seems to be principally Chinese.
