Look at it! What is that? It looks kind of like a cross section of a human, kind of, except the eyes are pools of blackened fire and the brain is sending electrical pulses out to... are those Jupiters? Why? Why??? This is absolute nightmare shit lol

The first thing I do on a fresh install of firefox is disable pocket.

anyone know good alternative to pocket?

[–] giant_smeeg 22 points 1 year ago (3 children)

No, but a good option that still works:

  • Disable pocket from the FF home page.
  • Get your personalised RSS link from your pocket profile
  • Add it to RSS reader of choice
  • Click pocket button on article
  • Read in RSS reader
  • Never see sponsored crap

As someone who has never used an RSS reader, any suggestions?

Realistically probably feedly. I don't use it but it's a reasonably good service.
