I’ve been using Instapaper for years. It does the job.

I tried to use Pocket because of Mozilla’s relentless promotion, but I ended up finding it too clunky compared to regular bookmarks.

I use Google Keep (I know, I know). I can share any link to the app and then I can access it from whatever device I’m on. You can also notes, which can come in handy for random things.

I use omnivore for longer articles and highlighting parts of the text. It also have a plugin to sync with obsidian. It’s really good, but I imagine self-hosting it can be tricky.

For a link-dump, I use Shiori. Could be anything vaguely interesting but I want to take a look later - works wonders for that.

And I have been a former pocket user, wallabag… But I stick with omnivore and Shiori.

I tried it. I tried just opening lots of tabs. I tried grouping tabs. Open tabs strewn across 3+ devices, “to read later”, until eventually some months later I just give up and close them, having lost interest or simply seeing a need to close some of the overflowing tabs.

My only solution to this problem - as BAD as ChatGPT is and as much as we hate it - feed the thing I’ll want to “read later” straight into ChatGPT RIGHT THEN, and just read a summary of it.

I’ve been doing this for a couple weeks now and so far, so good.

I use pocket app to save online recipes I like for later use. It is searchable and a separate list than my bookmarks which I like.

Neither, especially with Pocket. There’s something about an add-on integrated into a browser that makes me worry about privacy. I hate how pocket is bundled in Firefox and take great pleasure in disabling it in the browser’s config file. If it was something that could be downloaded on your own I might have had a different opinion about it. I just make a bookmark folder for articles I want to read later. It takes a few extra seconds to store and access but I think it’s worth it.

I use Pocket because it is compatible with my Kobo ereader.

Same here, really handy to take an article for offline reading.

I self-host Wallabag

Nope. Just a bunch of tabs and bookmarks, don’t need anything else.

I scroll through arstechnica headlines and save to pocket the most interesting ones. When I am in the bathroom or having a snack I can choose from my saves which article I’d like to read, instead of mindlessly scrolling, and the saves indicate estimated reading time in minutes so I can pick the perfect article to match the amount of time I plan to spend. Best of all, the articles are saved in a minimalist text-only format, stripping out all ads and other garbage. It even bypasses some paywalls, like the login prompt on seekingalpha.

Yes I use pocket and am fairly satisfied.

Why do I use it? Well, I have been using it for about 6 years, was the first thing to work fine in my mobile, don’t want to install another extension in ff, hate bookmark handling by ff (at least in mobile), and want to push myself in reading.

Although I nowadays see too much american articles in pocket to be relevant for me.

I tried. It’s basically the only app I couldn’t get to work on my boox.

I copy the URL and paste it into the readme.md in the root of my nextcloud account. I’ll find it again in 6 months or more and finally read it
