Like you, I pay for Evernote's premium service, love the idea, and - until recently - thought their execution was great.

Now, I think they're too distracted by the "accessories" market and ill-fitting social features that don't fit what the service was sold to be... a digital shoebox.

I don't need WSJ or Nikkei articles to appear in my Evernote searches. Sure, I can turn this "Context" feature off but it's on by default and doesn't do anything I don't get with CMD+T in my browser. Resources were spent on it.

I feel the same way about the Chat feature. Who are these people who want to chat with friends/colleagues from inside of Evernote? Again, more resources spent on that.

In the meantime... Premium features are broken on iOS (passcode security turns itself off), the Windows version doesn't work with HiDPI displays, and the editing/formatting of notes doesn't sync correctly across Windows->Mac->iOS.
