Evernote made the mistake of going multiplatform really aggressively and too much scope creep. I'm glad to see they're scaling back a lot of their scope creep.
Goo on you for trying to do this. Be ambitious and swing for the fences. Evernote's product crashes frequently.
Honestly, one of the main reasons I use Evernote is because it's Mac and iOS clients are so damn good, other than a few performance issues on websites with a lot of elements that have been clipped (and hey even Firefox struggles with those), I honestly can't remember the last time Evernote has crashed on either platform.
One of their strength _is_ multiplatform support. There was and is tons of scope creep. Hopefully they can turn that around and start improving core functionality again.
