I loved using Evernote, but stopped cold when I accidentally deleted a long article draft by hitting a keystroke when I had all text selected. The replaced the text with whatever key I typed.

Maybe I closed out of the window before noticing my mistake...the muscle memory of CTRL + S doesn't apply to cloud document apps. But when I reopened Evernote, all that was left was that keystroke. There was no way to revert to a previous version.

Plain text file and a text editor app, assuming rich content isn't a requirement. There are a million of them - personally, I've never had OldSchool Editor eat my data.

Yeah that's the biggest reason I don't use Evernote. A note app has one job...
