Dear Firefox, please stop shoveling that awful “Pocket” app our throats on every browser upgrade… it’s really useless tbh
about:config extensions.pocket.enabled false and find and disable: telemetry, normandy, sponsored
Maybe I’m in the minority but I do enjoy Pocket to have a backlog of articles I can read mostly distraction-free.
I understand that some people enjoy it, it would be probably better as an addon not as a included functionality showing up at every update.
I agree with this. I have been using Pocket way before it was integrated into Firefox and tbh the extension was much better - seems like after tying it to my Firefox Sync account I have to relogin every few days to get the “Add to Pocket” button to work. The extension just remained logged in and stuff worked.
I’m intending to switch over to self-hosted Wallabag though, for privacy and efficiency reasons.
The ads are annoying, but Pocket is a good app.
wha? I use Firefox and I haven’t seen or heard of Pocket in years.
Are they any custom compiles of Firefox that don’t have pocket?
Librewolf doesn’t have Pocket IIRC.
