I found one possible workaround that should work on most of the devices I mentioned: KOReader + Wallabag.
KOReader is an e-ink reader app, which works on Kobo and Moaan E-ink Reader, and Wallabag is a self-hosted article bookmarking tool. Kobo offers a Wallabag plugin.
I have yet to test it out but figured out share this option in case anyone else has some time to mess around with this alternative.

I've just learned that Mozilla is sunsetting Pocket.
https://www.theverge.com/news/672924/mozilla-pocket-fakespot-shutting-down
For those who avidly read and like to bookmark articles and miscellaneous links to read later, Pocket was one of the most popular.
What should I switch to now? Instapaper? Self-host Wallabag?
Bonus points if any services & apps integrate well with a Kobo ebook reader, Moaan Inkpalm, and/or the Boox Palma.

It's a pretty weird way to start the day, but I just enjoyed the last few bites of the durian I had leftover from last night.
Oh, the joys of living in Southeast Asia!

None of the links seem to be working for me. When I glance at where they point to, every single one is showing "javascript:void(0)".
Nostr bookmarks have been both a blessing and a curse for me. On the one hand, they're an easy way to quickly save a note. But on the other, the multiple clients issue means I have to check on both mobile and desktop where I might have saved something (and which client, as I'm a weirdo who uses multiple clients on both!).
Anyone know of a way to merge my bookmark lists or to make Nostr clients all access the same list?

The rain is pattering away on the rooftop outside. I've got some #darkacademia music playing while I drink hot tea and update some lesson plans for my students. It's a great start to the day.

This is one of the best takes I've seen so far.
#pope #popeleoxiv #catholic
#pope #popeleoxiv #catholicThese are some decent tips, but I'll have to give them some time to simmer a bit.
Right off the bat though, I'd counter that books are actually vitally important. We can learn loads from others' experiences and expertise. Instead of spending a lifetime to figure something out, enjoy someone else's story for an afternoon and apply their lessons to your life. nostr:naddr1qqgr2cm98q6kydnzv4jkzdpk8yersq3qcrzzhw352r68l3g9eauumrl2850nfhkzl477al8xjpwlff07k76sxpqqqp65w0v9zzm
Who thought it would be a good idea to burn plastics as fuel for kitchens? The general concept is utterly insane.
Investigative reports like this make me want to grow and cook all of my own food. Maybe someday, I can settle down and do so!

Tons of people on Github seem to have NewPipe+Sponsorblock projects. Is anyone using any of these? Is any particular project as reliable as the mainstream NewPipe?
Glancing at a few of these examples, most seem rather out-of-date, except for perhaps Tubular.

I've set aside this morning to work through a backlog of articles on my RSS feed reader, sip on some coffee, and listen to dark academia music.
I hope you'll find some time to do the same soon. To get you started, here are some links to the music playlist I'm enjoying right now along with a few articles I'm working through as well:

It's been a long while since I last perused #bookstr, and I was pleasantly surprised to see people enjoying physical books again.
I often do the same, but whilst out and about, I'll often bring my Kobo or Moaan ereaders. They're more compact and will hold up significantly better than a paperback in my bag, whether on a day trip or flying abroad.
Anyone else do the same?
