I love the pocket integration. The built-in functionality definitely works much better than the plugin, which was weirdly slow sometimes and had some glitches. Pocket has changed how I use the web. With a single click I send any substantive article to get automatically synced to my Kobo ereader, which also has built-in pocket integration.

It is definitely convenient -- in fact, using one system exclusively almost always provides the best user experience. (Apple has had great success with that idea.) Having Pocket bundled with eBook readers and browsers is convenient, but that doesn't fit the idea of an open web, which is what Mozilla is supposed to be supporting. I understand when Kobo does it, but Mozilla is supposed to operate under a different set of principles.

I use firefox and pocket but I still don't like that it's baked into the browser. If I change my mind and stop using pocket I can't actually get rid of it. I can disable it but without digging through the source code (which I can do but most users really can't) I have no idea what that actually means. To me that's a problem and it reduces the level of trust I have with the Mozilla organization.
