For several years my work flow has been to have feeds in Feedly and save articles to Pocket to read later.

With @mozilla killing Pocket, I'm wondering if @wallabag would actually serve as a replacement for both.

I'd be curious to hear any comments or experiences from folks. I'll be trying it out this week regardless, but I'd still love any tips given what my work flow has been.

Pocket is closing down and I'm one of the 12 people out there who loved the service and its integration with Kobo.

What's the next best alternative to save articles for offline reading on an e-reader? I've looked into Wallabag (don't mind self-hosting) but my test on two articles gave me a failure to retrieve content...

I'm considering Obsidian Web Clipper but don't know how I would go about syncing this with my Kobo.

Boost welcome!

So, Fedi distributed brain, what are people settling on for Pocket replacements?

I've put my self in an awkward position, but one that's been very smooth for me for several years. I use Feedly to scroll RSS feeds, and *had* perfect integration to save things to Pocket.

I'm going to have to look both at RSS aggregators and "read it later" apps to see where I want to go, but definitely a self-hosted FLOSS solution.

Je viens d'importer tous mes liens sauvegardés sous #pocket dans @wallabag. En utilisant l'import CSV, cela marche parfaitement! Il faut juste être patient.e , on ne voit pas de barre de progression mais ça peut prendre du temps, pour moi cela a pris une heure pour un millier d'article...
J'ai un peu de ménage à faire (les étiquettes sont importées, mais tous mes liens n'étaient pas étiquetés).
Je continue mon essai, et si cela est concluant (il n'y a pas de raison), je pense prendre un abonnement a l'instance wallabag.it.

Last week, Mozilla announced their plans to shut down Pocket.

I spent the weekend exploring alternatives to see which ones match my needs and wrote about what I found in my blog.

A lot of options! And while not all met my needs, they may be good options for you.
