It doesn't resolve your fear of cloud providers, but Simplenote (http://simplenote.com/) is an awesome, simple Evernote replacer. Especially is you trust the folks at Automattic!


Simplenote looks great. Any idea how they make money? On their front page, it says "Backups, syncing, sharing — it’s all completely free."


It started as Simplenote, but was acquired (methinks) by Automattic (WordPress) at some point, and the underlying tech was turned into https://simperium.com


Simplenote seem to have abandoned Markdown, as it is only arbitrarily implemented in the web app. This makes it less compelling for me.


I use simplenote religiously and the new apps are great, but it's not really a replacement for evernote.


What, do they finally have a real Android app?
