Thanks! I'll keep that in mind as I create the rec system. Are there any other issues you've found with using Pocket? Do you still use it at all or is it just a repository of things you've saved but never access (like me until recently)?

* I really just want pocket as a bookmarking tool than the web reader. The web reader works, but it's very bad in cases with a lot of embeds/code snippets. If a site is pay-walled, only a small section is available in Pocket. I usually open the actual page in this case than read in pocket.

* Some links I added a long time ago are permanently lost because the original page got taken down. It'd be much better if a permanent snapshot was taken(including all the images, this is pretty easy to do with something like https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile) of the page and is available even if the original page is lost.

A cool product that's very close to ideal is https://github.com/sissbruecker/linkding

It just misses a recommendation system.
