I have read the article the https://www.heise.de/en/news/End-of-bookmark-app-Mozilla-stamps-out-Pocket-10394019.html

I use Pocket every day and find it a very important addition to Firefox! My wishes to Mozilla:

1. keep Pocket in its current form

2. keep Pocket in another form (e.g. addon)

3. give the users the possibility to continue Pocket in a modified form by sharing the source code, e.g. as an external project or addon for Firefox

If Pocket is no longer provided by Mozilla in its current form, other options should be explored.

4. Can other companies or organisations buy and continue Pocket (in a different form)?

I've never could be bothered much with this new feedback website before, but the add to Pocket buttons missing from Firefox Desktop 140.0.2 is really annoying and breaks my workflow.  Pocket has always been a fun article discovery service and easy place to send my reading list and history.  Now I not only have to deal with reprocessing the links I already saved to Pocket, but I also have to sort out my bookmarks and manually set up some sort of proper organization 😕 .

@Jon  Unfortunately, Pocket was deactivated on July 8 as announced, and I have not yet received any feedback. What feedback have you received from Mozilla regarding my four questions?

  • Will Pocket's source code be released to others (question 3)?
  • Will the service be taken over by other individuals or organizations (question 4)?
