The speaker found Evernote to be the hardest note-taking app to transition to and from. The difficulty was attributed to the way Evernote is set up, as it encouraged the speaker to hoard their data. The challenge was sifting through the clutter to find what they actually wanted to keep.

Nicole van der Hoeven is a YouTuber, developer advocate for k6, and Dungeons and Dragons lover.
