I have found a few that sort of do what I need and not anything else, but I have yet to really try them out to say for sure. One thing does seem to be missing from all the alternatives, though; OCR translation of pictures and PDFs. :/

Why, oh why, do I still have Evernote installed?

I try to mind my mental well being, so I avoid Paris Hilton and all the other nincompoop "celebrities" as much as I can.
