Still a work in progress, but even at this stage, I hope it can help you and anyone you know who has been affected by the Pocket shutdown.
I’m really enjoying Karakeep, but I never used Pocket so I don’t know how they compare.
Is it good for read-it-later functionality, for example to read from a phone without online connectivity?
Karakeep seems more active than any of these, with a larger feature set potentially: https://github.com/karakeep-app/karakeep
I could be missing something but I never see Karakeep when the pocket shutdown is being mentioned. I’m curious ppl don’t know or don’t like karakeep?
The only reason I used Pocket was to save longer articles, ebooks, journals, etc with one click so they would sync with the free p2k (Pocket2Kindle) service and automatically end up on my Kindle. Is there anything similar?
I always forget the Kindle has a basic web browser. In lieu of a sync service/native apps, I wonder if any of these alternatives would work decently enough in the Kindle web browser with Article Mode.
And for what it’s worth, I use this Firefox extension to send articles directly to my Kindle without Pocket/any service in the middle.
Good question! I know Wallabag has some eReader integrations through KOReader. People on Kobo devices seem to like it especially. There may be other options too. I’ll look at this some more! I’d appreciate anyone sharing details that they know too.
Readeck also has a KOReader integration via OPDS catalogue
I set up Wallabag on my Kobo last week and really don’t like it when compared with the default Pocket implementation. Having to mess about getting it set up, and having to install KOReader just to replicate a function I already had and used extensively is irritating as hell. And it’s not as good either.
Fuck Mozilla. They didn’t have to buy Pocket, and they didn’t have to shut it down. The pricks.
