Pocket will be shutting down on July 8, 2025. This is very disappointing as I love the compatibility with my Kobo.

Wallabag is a fine alternative to pocket.
-
Imagine that someone collected and kept the bookmarks there, and now they will disappear. Another reason to remember that you do not need to store anything important remotely.
-
i just imported all my pocket bookmarks into firefox bookmarks, and it kinda works even better
-
Finally! Good news. One less thing to remove every time I install Firefox.
-
Good. Was frustrating to have Firefox finely tuned w/ extensions and whatnot to eliminate invasive ads, but their front page "news aggregator" ignored all of those rules and served up only ad-infested trash
-
The aggregator is being kept. It’s just the bookmarking/reading service that’s shutting down.
-
-
And nothing of value was lost.
-
I actually quite enjoy the functionality, especially as I try to move away from centralised aggregation like Reddit.
I just don't like the privacy and monetization tactics used by most of the solutions in this niche.
-
https://www.wallabag.it/ is a solid alternative

It's always interesting when the first I hear of something is when it dies.
-
You should be happy its the first you hear about it. It wasnt popular when it came and it never became popular and still it took a decade to fucking die.
It got bundled with Firefox in June 2015 and now exactly 10 years later, its finally gone.

Time to move those developers to more AI products
edit: y'all are misinterpreting my post.
oh well
