Mozilla is shutting down Pocket

Unproofread notes

Mozilla recently announced that they are shutting down the Pocket app, which people used to save articles, videos, and other content formats to read later.

I, too, have used the app in the past but do not use anymore (I'm more of an RSS guy now, I do not save to read later). At a point, Mozilla integrated the Pocket app to the Firefox browser by default, in fact, they do this to this day.

But they would be shutting down everything except the Pocket newsletter, it will continue sending issues under a different name. And the main reason for closing the app they give is:

[...] the way people save and consume content on the web has evolved [...]

You had a good run, Pocket.
