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.

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.

IIRC they wrote the italian COVID app, "Immuni"

That sounds familiar. I remember being impressed by then because Italy is not known for its tech sector (my brother in law here just learned about docker etc for example even though he's a system admin) and they seemed pretty current on tech.
