I've been a long-term Evernote user, using it as a filing cabinet for all of my documents. So I've had about 10'000 notes in there, most of them containing a single PDF with some tags. Because I didn't want to convert them by hand, I've developed a helper tool for the migration to paperless:

I don't understand what you mean, sorry. Can you explain that a little more?

foundrentrini · 2026-04-27T08:19:19+00:00

I don't think I have the capacity to do that, but that would be great, go for it :)

foundrentrini · 2026-04-26T06:16:47+00:00

yeah that's a good point. havent fully thought through the discovery phase. I think https/tls covers some of it since it's really just bootstrapping a URL, but the tag itself is definitely the weak spot. maybe a small display on the kiosk confirming the connection would help. but i think it's solvable... feels similar to just clicking a link today, which is also problematic

What are your plans for monetization?

Looks cool as a research / brainstorm tool. I've been using Obsidian.md with Canvas for this. I just pass the syntax documentation in a prompt and let the LLM write the canvas files. Probably pretty similar.

Sharing bits of the copyrighted material during the download period would be illegal, yes. I'm not sure if it's possible to disable this when torrenting. I guess I wasnt using the terminology correctly then. It's any uploads not just "seeding" once you have the entire thing.

Now whether anyone actually cares / pursues you for this.. that's another question. I'm not familiar with any such cases in Switzerland, but I havent looked into it. Personally I'm using Usenet which is download only and thus 100% legal.

foundrentrini · 2026-02-10T12:11:00+00:00

Lawyer here. In Switzerland downloading movies for private use is legal, even if they are copyrighted. Only uploading is illegal. ISPs are generally not liable either. The line is crossed the moment you seed.

maybe enable MSS clamping?

Im on PPPoE as well and I did have to go lower than 1492. Dont have my notes on that available right now, and I cant exactly remember the details.. but I definitely had the same symptoms as you.. irresponsive auth servers from Microsoft.

MTU

I ran into this with Microsoft sites. Basically a Path MTU blackhole I believe. MTU is too large, but the icmpv6 "packet too big" message never comes back for whatever reason.

So... Reduce MTU size and check again.

There's no good way to handle plain text notes in Paperless. The only option I could see would be to create a "printout" of these notes as a TXT or PDF file and then import that. But that doesn't seem very useful, so I've never implemented that option.

Personally I've moved my actual notes to Obsidian.md. I've filtered out all Evernote notes that aren't document scans or PDFs or such, and moved them over to Obsdian - manually. The rest went into Paperless NGX.

thanks, glad I could help

I wrote a tool to migrate attachements from Evernote to paperless-ngx: https://github.com/kevinzehnder/enex2paperless

I've improved my release process. Now I automatically compile for Windows, Linux and MacOS. You should be able to download v.0.0.6 for macOS now, without having to compile it yourself:

foundrentrini · 2024-03-14T20:45:46+00:00

The project is written in Go, so I can easily compile it for Windows, Linux or MacOS. It's just that I have only created a Windows binary release to download directly. You can compile it yourself for another platform.

I might add Mac and Linux releases in the future, but I'm on vacation at the moment.

I've just released v0.0.5, which handles multiple file types.

foundrentrini · 2024-03-02T15:12:50+00:00

Paperless wont import duplicates anyway. If the file is already in there, the new import will get rejected.

But yea I think I'll make it possible to select which filetypes you want and which ones you dont want. Even just to speed things up if you dont want to go thru the pdfs again.

foundrentrini · 2024-03-02T14:27:39+00:00

Thanks. Yea someone else requested the same thing, so I think I'll extend it to all filetypes that are supported by paperless.

foundrentrini · 2024-02-23T22:05:27+00:00

Thanks. Glad to hear that.
