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

    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

    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 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.
