I have no idea what pocket is. I assume some feature of ff I don't have any need for.
It's for saving articles. Plenty of people use it, myself included. Very handy.
Isn't that what bookmarks are for?
Indeed. And then I can read it on my e reader.
Yet another "bookmarks, but with a different UX" feature like half of the stuff that browsers have these days.
(I may sound like I'm mocking it, but I appreciate that we're not stuck manually saving bookmarks for everything and get to choose how we want things to be saved)
You know how it seems like everything has a share button now ? Imagine an app that aggregates everything you want to save from all different places so you can go back to it later. That’s pocket.
Sounds like a bookmarking service.
