More information about the end of support for Pocket.

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

      I am currently trying Wallabag and like it so far. Being able to self-host it is definitely a plus. I also like how clean and simple it is compared to how bloated Pocket has become, but it does not have the official integration with Kobo. It looks like there is a way to use Wallabag by installing KOReader. I will look more into that if I decide to stick with Wallabag long-term.

    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.

    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.

      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.
