#wallabag #pocket #alternative #shutdown #foss

I ended up picking @wallabag to replace #Pocket. It does everything I used from Pocket, including (via a small detour) syncing with my Kobo e-reader.
Bonus points: it's #FOSS and you can self-host (or you can just use their service which is located in Europe) so that's one less American tech dependency

With Mozilla shutting down Pocket, folks are calling for open-sourcing it. There's this “pocket-monorepo” project which seems to contain the majority of server code? https://github.com/Pocket/pocket-monorepo

Some parts are missing, notably the parser, but I've found it useful for reverse engineering their GraphQL API, particularly the public API proxy.
Anyone can confirm what else is missing?

If you import 10 years worth of bookmarks from Pocket to @readeck you'll likely end up with a bunch of broken ones where the original articles aren't online anymore. I definitely did, so I made a little script to help clean them up.

Incident on the wallabag.it service

Due to Pocket shutdown annoucement, a lot of new users are arriving on wallabag.it. They are importing thousand of articles. Two consequences:

- the import may take hours
- our web server may have some downtimes

#wallabag #wallabagit #pocket #shutdown

Perso, je pense partir sur #Wallabag ? (à tester). Dommage pour #Pocket, c'était super pratique avec une liseuse #Kobo... => « Comment exporter ses articles de Pocket avant sa fermeture le 8 juillet 2025 ? » (via @profduweb) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hrpta2mPL0U

With the help of https://benjaminoakes.github.io/pocket-to-wallabag/ I now finally imported all my #pocket bookmarks into my self-hosted #wallabag.

I had some issues with links to PDF-files, but after just removing these few items everything went well, the benefit of CSV as an exchange-format.

I like the apps and browser-extensions of #wallabag. Thank you!

Just sent an email to Kobo CEO ... Who knows?

Ahora que #Mozilla apagará #Pocket para enfocarse en #Firefox...

¿Podrían devolver el menú global para los entornos de escritorio de GNU Linux?

Ah no, que de todas formas no tienen fondos... Es una pena que un software tan relevante dependa de una fundación que no le hace honor a su ADN de #SoftwareLibre, ¿o cómo es que para MacOS sí hay menú global?

So the Instapaper service is something I find useful, and so far it's free.

I'd *like* to pay something like $20 a year for it. That's kind of my "comfortable" price point for a service. But they are looking for $60.

I don't think this is a $60/year service. I'd be grumbly with $30 and OK with $20.

But if it's $60 or $0, I guess it's $0 for now.

#instapaper #pocket

I always found #Pocket kind of clunky, but I did find things I wanted to read in their daily emails. I used Firefox, and it was part of the ecosystem, so I was OK with that.

There seemed to be extra clicks involved with saving to Pocket. It wasn't as seamless as it needed to be.

Now with Instapaper, which I'd heard of but never used, I like the ease of using the browser extension and phone app to add links to my "feed" (or "paper," I guess).

Someone here who have an error while importing your Pocket CSV into wallabag.it server?
If yes, could you please retry? I added more logs to understand the problem.

For those who wallabag.it told you that your CSV was KO, it's fixed.

Web browsers don't handle mimetypes in the same way...
It's fixed thanks to this pull request https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag/pull/8036

#Digg founder Kevin Rose offers to buy #Pocket from #Mozilla - https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/23/digg-founder-kevin-rose-offers-to-buy-pocket-from-mozilla/ well, better than letting it die...

Hace años empecé con pocket porque "venía" con firefox y descubrí que era un maldito timo porque terminabas por acumular miles (literalmente) de lecturas que no se reducían nunca y que te creaban ansiedad. Curioso que con los libros en papel eso no me pasa; será porque adornan mi vida, no sé.

En cualquiera de las dos herramientas (y supongo que no serán las únicas) el mayor problema que tenían era con las propias páginas web, una enorme parte de ellas diseñadas para NO compartir información y para NO leer con comodidad y mucho menos fuera de ellas, por lo que en ocasiones era imposible recoger el contenido y se limitaban a registrar la URL. URL que, por supuesto, desaparecía o se trasladaba o volvía a estar bajo un muro de pago que antes no o ... La internet moderna de los mercaderes: basura.

El caso es que cuando apareció wallabag -y teniendo dos servidores alquilados en la red- me pareció buena idea pasarme a él y alojarlo en ellos. Luego pensé que pedían muy poco y que estaría bien pagarles a ellos por una cuenta y así contribuir.

Lo usé durante un tiempo más, importando mi contenido de pocket, y alcancé inmediatamente el status anterior: montañas de páginas web superinteresantes pendientes de leer. Otro autoengaño.

Cuando descubrí que wallbag está diseñado para importar pero no para exportar me sentí ciertamente engañado y me dije que hasta ahí llegaba y que pasaba de ellos y me iba con pocket.

Eso fue el mes pasado.

Así que ahora no tengo claro qué hacer. Puedo usar la aplicación de marcadores de Nextcloud, que para eso tengo el montaje, o intentar encontrar algo nuevo que prometa guardar páginas y clasificarlas y organizarlas y ... termine empleando un LLM para darte la información.

Y yo muertito de angustia porque todo ese conocimiento vital para lo que fuese en ese momento mi vida no estará a mi alcance. 😞

I need articles read to me from my Android while I do other stuff, like a podcast. I think #pocket might have failed because lots of people want it to do slightly different stuff.

Currently digesting over 200,000 articles.

What happens to the “pocket.co” links that #Pocket used when you shared from within it? They don’t work any more. 😱

My early #microblogging shares are a graveyard of “pocket.co”, “zite.to”, “j.mp” links. 😰

Bummed out about #Pocket being shut down, despite its recent enshittification — been using it since the #ReadItLater days 😰:

Hearing about ArchiveBox and hosting it on my own server was one of the best things I discovered this year.

I now have my own internet archive :)

I imported all my data from #Pocket and will do the same with many articles saved in my browser's favourites lists.

ArchiveBox allows you to take snapshots of a web page and save them in PDF, text and many other formats.

And on my own server, enough with relying on others.

I appreciate that people are looking for different solutions to replace Pocket, something I will miss using. I have a few thoughts, but keen to hear from others.

I have a conversation open at https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/replacing-pocket-learn-share-explore-the-open-web/143470 - would be great to hear what positive ideas people have and solutions they have found.

Hello everyone!

We are so happy to welcome you here.

For your information, we are working on the CSV import from #Pocket. We will release a new version in coming days 🚀

About the hosted version on wallabag.it, I hope it will be available today or tomorrow 🔥

You can join us on matrix to discuss with us and other wallabag users: https://matrix.to/#/#wallabag:matrix.org

Si tenemos el mejor admin técnico del mundo se dice y punto. No hace ni un rato que he comentado con @elmau la posibilidad de tener un Readeck en #LecturaSocial como alternativa a #Pocket y dicho y hecho.

Ya lo tenemos:

https://readeck.lectura.social/

Si alguien de la comunidad quiere hacer de conejillo de indias, que me diga, y así me sirve a mí para ver cómo se configura esto :)

Mandadme email indicándome el correo con el que os apuntasteis a Ko-fi y os abro la cuenta.

QQ internet; #Pocket is effectively dead.. So is it now *official* that @mozilla hates its users or am I just slow in catching on?

Camaradas, cierra #pocket y para mí es un desastre bastante gordo. ¿Alguna alternativa? ¿libre y gnu? ¿que permita importar lo almacenado en pocket?

On va en parler dans le billet de blog à venir sur wallabag.org, mais sans #Pocket, l'aventure #wallabag n'aurait peut-être jamais existé.

Merci pour tout Pocket <3

If you’re looking for a Pocket replacement, the good news is that there are tons of open source options available - if you’re willing to self host. And if you’re going that route, why not try a federated bookmarking platform? I know of two.

Might be a little biased as I’ve contributed once or twice, but Postmarks works great. Yes, it was built with Glitch in mind but I run it as a Docker container myself.

Je vais devoir faire un billet de blog qui explique que ouais, #wallabag c'est pas aussi joli (c'est relatif je sais, mais c'est pas totalement faux quand même) que #pocket, mais tu peux contribuer / on n'a pas levé des millions d'euros et notre modèle économique n'est pas de réussir à en vivre et à embaucher des dizaines de personnes. Donc on fait comme on peut, depuis plus de 12 ans et ça fonctionne plutôt pas mal comme ça.

Non estou en situación de ofrecer de xeito público un servizo como #Pocket pero que saibades que tanto #wallabag como #readeck (coas súas diferenzas) son servizos moi acaídos e que funcionan moi ben, con ferramentas para importar os datos que teñas actualmente en pocket.

Levo anos usando wallabag no meu servidor, e desde hai uns meses readeck. Teñen tanto Complementos para o navegador como Aplicacións para dispositivos móbiles.

With Mozilla announcing they're shutting down Pocket I thought I'd mention that for a while I've been working on a little bookmarking web-app called Readlynx. It will be open-source and self-hosted, but I hope to look into providing hosted instances in the future.

It's a single binary to download and run, which I'm hoping will make it super easy to get started. If this interests you, follow me or the #readlynx hash tag for updates. 1/2

Atención usuarios de #Pocket: #Mozilla va a cerrar Pocket, y dejará de funcionar el 8 de julio. Sus datos se podrán exportar hasta el 8 de octubre.
Dos alternativas #opensource y fuera de EEUU: Wallabag, gratis si se hace selfhosting, si no, 11 euros/año.
Raindrop.io - gratis, tiene cuenta pro, en la mayoría de casos no hace falta.
Las dos tienen apps, extensiones y permiten importar datos de Pocket.

Hay bastantes más, me haré un hilo de alternativas si quereis.

Recordatorio de que, entre otros servicios, en #LecturaSocial ofrecemos un #Linkding, que quizás sea una alternativa a #Pocket

Linking es un gestor de marcadores minimalista, que a mí me gusta mucho (lo uso todo los días) porque yo era muy de Delicious en su día y esto es muy parecido.

OK, merci ! Compte créé et installation faite sur Android. Par contre je ne comprends pas comment je peux importer ma collection depuis #pocket, est-ce qu'il y a une explication quelque part ?

He usado varias aplicaciones estilo Read It Later, desde Wallabag a Pocket y siempre me han agobiado y he terminado dejando de usarlas.
Veo que esto le ha pasado a más gente, aquí un post sobre el tema.

La moraleja sería que tenemos que ver la aplicación como un rio, no como un cubo. ¿Pero es esto suficiente? Lo intentaré y a ver que resultado me da.
