Digg founder Kevin Rose offers to buy Pocket from Mozilla

I have no idea what pocket is. I assume some feature of ff I don't have any need for.
You know how it seems like everything has a share button now ? Imagine an app that aggregates everything you want to save from all different places so you can go back to it later. That’s pocket.

Yet another "bookmarks, but with a different UX" feature like half of the stuff that browsers have these days.
(I may sound like I'm mocking it, but I appreciate that we're not stuck manually saving bookmarks for everything and get to choose how we want things to be saved)

That would be like the Spider-Man pointing at Spider-Man meme.

And access is/was gated behind a paywall that comes with like mod powers or some nonsense.

I find it much easier than managing an unwieldy number of bookmarks and the tagging & list functionality allow you to group things in more than one way. Both the web interface and the app strip all the unnecessary clutter out of articles (making them easier to read), plus the app gives you offline reading.

Wait you don't use folders and groupings for your bookmarks?

I do use folders for my bookmarks, but I prefer my bookmarks to be for pages that I regularly use or are important for me to find quickly using the address bar. Articles that I want to read or have read and want to keep for future reference I much prefer in a platform like Pocket. With Pocket's demise I will be looking at Wallabag and Readeck.

Sounds like a bookmarking service.
