I didn't notice this problem, but then I realized that as I'm using Brave browser ads might be blocked by default. So I tried in Chrome and still no ads. I'm using Jekyll for my blog so I wonder what's saving me from this issue.
I also found https://dabble.me/ the other day which seemed like a nice slot in for quick thoughts with the ability to email to your journal. I've heard that journaling manually works better but I really dislike writing unless necessary.
One of my biggest gripes is with how many places I have my data in currently, and as a dev, I should have done something already but that's another story.
I'll definitely have a look at Notion and org-mode having read the feedback here along with a few other mentions elsewhere.
I was a paying EverNote user for years, but they stopped evolving while other NoteTaking apps didn't. I forget which feature they removed that was the last straw, but the recipe front-end was hugely important to me.
I don't know the dose and will ask, but your experience matches my only experience and I hadn't looked into it before. Everything resolved to one entity, which was almost nothingness at the same time. As a solipsist, the experience and events leading up to it, including the peers that appeared to be guides, remain with me today.
This was something I read leading up to it, http://www.galactanet.com/oneoff/theegg_mod.html
I installed it on my personal laptop due to constant crashes with chrome that debug logging didn't help to solve. Brave suffered similarly so I stuck with Chrome. I do extension development so when I saw that they used the same store I was pleasantly surprised. I couldn't test my extension behaviour though, because the app it enhances was having issues.
I'll give it a go on the PC I'm using for work(family) until I upgrade. Free BAT!

If anyone is able to confirm that they're not seeing ads either, I would be grateful.
