I use Joplin and OneNote, on an MS Surface. OneNote handles hand writing great, but it’s also just a notes app that works great with typing and pictures and everything.
They’re only killing the crappy store/UWP version that nobody used anyway and only caused confusion. The normal OneNote bundled in Office isn’t going anywhere as far as I know.
That said, I’ve moved a lot of my note taking to Obsidian. It’s not a perfect replacement but it’s a fantastic markdown editor and now I use both for different use cases.
It was a really good app for quite a bit and had the best inking experience compared to the non-UWP version. A few years back they announced merging the features to the Win32 version and it has since been more or less on par now.
Sadly OneNote is one MS where I don’t think there are any good alternatives.
I’ve found Joplin acceptable.
…have you ever used OneNote? It’s a handwriting app.

I use OneNote quite frequently at work, it’s so much more than a “handwriting app”.
And yet it is still a handwriting app. Joplin does not support handwriting.
Obsidian with self hosted live sync is what I switched to and found it’s actually better.
They’re just moving to the app store version.
