Mozilla responds to Firefox user backlash over Pocket integration
- transfire 11y agoI have mixed feelings about it. No doubt, Pocket has become an almost indispensable tool for me. It would be nice if there were a way to do this fully open source, but an "Internet Save" button requires a back-end. How else can such functionality be provided? (P.S. Sure wish Pocket supported PDFs.)
- microfracture 11y agoI personally believe that Pocket does not belong within the core framework of the browser. However, I think the feature would probably have been much more acceptable to many users had Mozilla simply held off on integrating Pocket until they added the ability to select other read-it-later services (including open source self-hosted options like wallabag [1]) as well.
