MUSHROOM LIGHT PREDICTOR

Removed all distracting apps from my phone.
Left only: telegram, books, pocket(really enjoy reading articles, thanks #Mozzilla) and thats all!

I still will use maps, #FireFox (for unexpected questions), and etc, but i removed all social media from phone(including #Mastodon and #Reddit). I will use mastodon and reddit but only on my desktop.

So I want to check how it will be going after one week! May be its just small step on my way to a #dumbphone

@predicterOfShroomsLight Pocket isn't a good for privacy. Its proprietary software and it tracks you around the web to collect your data for ads and suggesting articles.

@hirad

yep, but is there way to read more ?
because with pocket i really do more reading then scrolling social media

it useful, because in pocket i can see only articles(no shorts, no videos, no images), its easy to save articles(from any other app also) and there nice reading mode. Soo, i don know alternatives

@predicterOfShroomsLight
unfortunately there aren't many alternatives. There is wallabag. But its not free (unless you host it yourself like I do, which I know isn't something everyone can do).
Beside that, I think just bookmarking pages like you normally would and then read it in reading view mode is the best option.
