Nearly all of Evernote’s remaining staff has been laid off

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Damn it. I've got a lot of stuff on there, organised and tagged.
I've thought about migrating for the last couple of years, but just left it as I couldn't be bothered.
If it's getting more expensive though, this might be the time to move.
What would be the service with the easiest migration path? Ideally one that:
has good automatic OCR of all documents uploaded to make them searchable
has good apps on Android, Windows and IOS
has a good import function that can retain tags from Evernote
That may be asking too much?
Sounds like Obsidian is a great alternative
One other important thought to add to my own comment.
If I'm moving to a web based service, longevity is important. Nothing lasts forever, but if I move to another solution and migrate everything and they go out of business in 6 mths, that would suck. So it matters that where I move to is fairly solid and sustainable.
That's why I hoped that Evernote would keep going, they charged a reasonable amount for the service.
But I guess in the commercial world it's all about constant growth rather than sustainability...
