  I used Daily Notes since it was launched in 2011 and later synced that with EverNote, the problem I have is I don’t Like EverNote and Daily Notes hasn’t been supported for a while and is now starting to loose and corrupt notes.

  So I have the Daily Notes Exports in their proprietary dnb format and the EverNotes exports in their enex format and need to get them into DayOne.

  I followed this link which was the best I could find but it no longer works so hoping someone on here can help

  Are you familiar with the CLI tool on Mac? You may be able to use a script to import to Day One on Mac. https://dayoneapp.com/guides/tips-and-tutorials/command-line-interface-cli/

  I may and I may win a marathon, but I lack the skills to do either.

  I was hoping someone on here had done it and could help me

  Touché. That is why I asked if you were familiar. I have not personally done it this way, but I have heard of people importing data from other apps using CLI.
