At Pocket, we strive to provide our users with the best possible experience across all platforms. As part of this commitment, Pocket for Mac is no longer supported and may not work as expected. After August 15, 2023, the app will no longer work.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve been adding web articles to Pocket for years. I’m very discouraged by this.

    If Mozilla open sourced it years ago like they promised, it could be picked up by someone else.

    Why is Pocket discontinuing Pocket for Mac?

    We are creating a more consistent user experience across mobile and web, making it easier for you to discover, save and access your content on any device, at any time.

    Incredible explanation. Btw, Omnivore is a great open source alternative with a macOS app for anyone needing to migrate somewhere.

      I’ll add Wallabag as a very nice self-hostable alternative, although it doesn’t offer a Mac app either. I know Omnivore can technically be self-hosted as well but at least last I checked documentation was basically non-existent.
