#REMOVE POCKET FROM FIREFOX ANDROID#

вЂњThe integration is bad for several reasons if you ask me. That being said, I would of course have to take issue with your statement that: Pocket recently informed me that I was in the top 5% of ALL Pocket users!

There seems to be a disparity between what Mozilla does and what Firefox users want, and the integration of Pocket is just the latest feature that highlights that. Users are already complaining about the integration on sites like Reddit, and while some welcome the integration, the vast majority of commenters dislike it or put it in words that I cannot possibly print here on Ghacks. This is going to be another PR nightmare for Mozilla in the end. This seems wrong on many levels, Reading List does not rely on third-party services for instance. Mozilla has been working on a feature called Reading List which works similar to Pocket but made the decision to put Reading List on the backburner to integrate Pocket instead in the browser. integration of Firefox accounts with third-party services, it should be offered to users as an optional component and not something that is baked in. It is puzzling that Mozilla went the direct integration way as there is already a Pocket extension for Firefox that interested users can install.Д®ven if it is for testing purposes, e.g. This is a shotgun approach that is going to annoy Firefox users who don't plan on using Pocket. The most obvious reason is that the service is not useful to some - I would say the majority - of Firefox users but is still deployed for all by default. The integration is bad for several reasons if you ask me. For users who choose not to use the feature and remove the button from their toolbar, the impact is reduced even further. If you choose to use the Pocket feature, the impact on FirefoxГўв‚¬в„ўs performance or memory use is minimal, similar to opening Pocket in a new tab in Firefox.
