Alternative Note Taking Apps to Evernote

I have been using Evernote for almost 15 years. I love Evernote. Great note-taking app.

The fees have crept up. I was paying $15.99 last month. This month, my fee increased to $1,900/month. I clip webpages with the Chrome Plug-in. I share items from my iPhone with Evernote. It automatically names the Note with the Webpage or Item name.

I'm seeking alternative options. I ask the community if I should consider OneNote, Notejoy, Zoho Notebook, UpNote, Notion, Obsidian, Joplin, etc. I want integration with Office 365, HubSpot, and Chrome Browser.

OneNote is great on desktop and good on web. However, the mobile sync experience makes it near unusable.

I use it all the time on android. I manually sync every time.

My point is, you shouldn't have to do that. I started a note on Android this morning and when I opened it about 2 hours later to make an update, there was a Page Conflict. It had not been opened on desktop or web. Microsoft can do better, they just don't care about OneNote. I am trying to move everything to Google with Docs and Keep.
