My personal daily workflow is heavily dependent on the old Pocket addon. That addon was deprecated a long time ago, I think even before Mozilla tried to integrate Pocket into FF. I think what I'm actually using now is a tweaked version of the addon that bumped some of the compat flag and signed it (per http://hemenkapadia.blogspot.com/2015/12/get-old-pocket-experience-on-firefox.html http://hemenkapadia.blogspot.com/2015/12/get-old-pocket-expe... ). Because of that, I'm actually way behind on the FF update curve, and holding out as long as I can. (If anyone has a pointer to an equivalent modern addon, I'd be interested.) For that matter, I'm also a die-hard TreeStyleTabs user, and I'm still not clear on whether that's going to work properly as things go forward.

I use a simple bookmarklet to add to pocket in Firefox. No extension needed at all! https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8969368 https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8969368

  A limitation of bookmarklets is that it can't run on sites that use CSP to block external JavaScript. For example, I use a bookmarklet for Pinboard and I can't pin pages on github.com. Here are the Firefox and Chrome bug reports requesting that bookmarklets bypass CSP: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=866522 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=866522 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=233903 https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=233903

You might be able to run unsigned extensions in Firefox Nightly or Developer Edition by setting the about:config pref "xpinstall.signatures.required" = false. Mozilla is testing a "TreeStyleTabs Lite" UI called Tab Center. You can install it using the Mozilla Test Pilot addon: https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/tab-center https://testpilot.firefox.com/experiments/tab-center
