>> Mozilla is contributing to healthy public discourse, with Pocket enabling discovery of amazing content

> I'm sure there are faithful lovers of Pocket out there somewhere.

I use Pocket as a glorified bookmark manager. I'm not even really sure what discovery options it has except for the email they send me, which I filter out of my inbox before I ever see it.

Edit: Actually, not even that. I use it as a "Read Later" service.

It used to have great recommendations. For a time, I got yearly emails saying I was in the top [some low %] of readers, which was neat. Then it devolved into generic self-help garbage.

At some point I got an email saying I had to migrate my Pocket account to my Firefox account or I'd lose the former. Never could get it to work or figure out how to contact someone about it. I moved to Instapaper.
