I was a heavy Pocket user. It shut down. So did Perch, and Artifact, all within a couple of years. They had one thing in common: simple, single-purpose apps for people who wanted to read, and that kind of app doesn't survive on its own. So I built my own over a weekend, mostly so I'd stop losing the essays I meant to come back to. Clean reader, audio for walks, search, public collections. It's free. It's rough in places and things will break, but I'll keep fixing them. The browser extension is open source: https://github.com/mahmoudalwadia/readit-extension The app is the small part though. I wrote about why I read essays here: https://mahmoudalwadia.com/writing/essays
