- tristanho 1y agoNo, unfortunately their API doesn't return the actual html content of the saved articles :( just the urls and all the metadata: highlights, title, author, image, tags, location, etc I really wish they did :/ some things aren't even on the internet archive and are probably saved uniquely on Pocket's servers. Would be sweet if they could open source that data.
- uxcolumbo 1y agoWould be awesome if your app could scrape the actual pocket pages. I'd sign up for a paid version of yours if it had that feature. But I'm not sure how many others premium users would do the same.
- no_wizard 1y agosomething these other apps could do is run dead URLs through archive.org and nab it that way. Not 100% foolproof but I'm willing to bet it will work for the majority of links
