I'm in the same ballpark as you, Jon. It's a starting point for me with a few reminders about what's coming up. Once I'm into my daily processing, I'm using Tasks as my main workflow control, identifying the specific aspects of projects that need dealing with.
I'd love Home BUT the continuing lack of iOS integration (unless I've missed something) is so frustrating. I'd love to use it as my base for everything really, but until I can get the calendar to work it just won't.
I know there's a workaround involving Google calendar, but there's also a ridiculous problem where the Google calendar integration massively slows down my mac, so it's out as an option!
I use home every day on the desktop. It serves as a dashboard for my Evernote activities (calendar, tasks, notes) as well as my information ecosystem scattered throughout the google workspace and various other websites. It's a little less useful on the android phone and ipad due to the lack of space. On the web version I use the scratchpad a lot to capture lots of little pieces of info that I want to save.
I occasionally use the scratch pad to hot something down but other than that, it's easier to be in the main note view and just use the sidebar and shortcuts to get around
I use it a lot at work. It’s like my work dashboard. I have my calendar with tasks displayed, a pinned note with information I need daily, and a saved search referenced daily. It’s not something I look at on mobile, but it’s my go-to screen on desktop.
Mobile is mainly used for quick searches or quick captures. I don't do much in the way of note creation or organisation. I stick with desktop for that.

Yeah. Integration with apple calendar is still planned but not sure when. Hopefully they’ll look at it again in the new year.

Same as you. I like seeing tasks and calendar in the same place.

Yup. I’ve recently realised I’m not using switch to as much as I used to. Using search to navigate around much more
My Evernote is set to open on Home screen. Quick view of everything I need to know.
Same. Is it at as default on mobile as well or just desktop?

Same here. I don’t use home much on mobile. Do you use Evernote in a different way/purpose on mobile?

I don't really use Home. I've tried, it just doesn't fit.
I mostly live in the Notes list.
I use Home (on desktop) as my jumping off point for new meeting notes, to open recent notes, and to view tasks. I find it easier than the sidebar.
