That's why I use https://joplinapp.org
It's markdown, open-source, free. With desktop and mobile support.
Syncs notes to any cloud of your choice for free. (I use One Drive)
Optionaly you can pay them to sync your data on their cloud. So they even have a compelling business model!
It's a self-hosted document management system:
https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/
Think: replacing paper file folders with a digital system. Supports OCR, a variety of metadata, tagging and categories, etc.
My primary use case is taxes, but for any important legal or financial documents, I throw 'em in Paperless.
Even though Evernote is a competitor, it's still sad to see such a giant in the note-taking space go down so badly. Of course, I am still skeptical about this news and whether its actually true since no source has been linked.
Aside:
I work (and lead the development) on Notesnook, an end-to-end encrypted, open source alternative to Evernote. Since we are based in Pakistan, our pricing has been really competitive at just $4.49/mo (compared to $17.99/mo of Evernote). And best of all, we have one of the best Evernote Importers around: https://importer.notesnook.com/
If you'd like to learn more about Notesnook: https://notesnook.com/
Feel free to ask me any and all questions!
If you are okay with rclone (and do have vps/server/whatever somewhere) then Syncthing is the thing to do that.

In case if you want some Evernote alternatives, here's my shortlist:
1. Trilium Notes: https://github.com/zadam/trilium
3. Affine: https://github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE
5. Dendron: https://github.com/dendronhq/dendron; requires VSCode
As a programmer I liked Dendron the most but if you want it to be packed with absolute features, try Trilium Notes (but some considered it to be feature creep and bloated)
I have never used this, but for NeoVim it looks like you might be able to use this (or hack on it a bit to make it work with LogSeq a bit better) https://github.com/artempyanykh/marksman
Evernote was critically valuable for me but has degraded steadily and sadly for years now.
I began my Obsidian migration a few days ago and it's encouraging.
I found the evernote2md project on Github (https://github.com/wormi4ok/evernote2md) the best way to get from ENEX->md files with good resource references. Joplin wasn't getting it done.

... it's so easy to create and revise cards using this plugin, which is really important, as I almost never get a card's shape right for committing something to memory on the first try.
A couple caveats I'd mention:
* Logseq's sync system was really buggy for me during the time I used it. I stopped using it for a while, as the sync was the only way I could get E2E encryption and still have mobile access. With iOS advanced data security, I feel like iCloud sync gets me most of the way there.
There's an Obisidian plugin for direct syncing to OneDrive that works on both mobile and desktop - this keeps you from having to deal with either triggered syncs through github or the various other, painful syncing processes.
