Godammit. 😞 This was a huge part of why I went with a Kobo. An opportunity for Readwise to expand their Kobo integration to include Reader? But probably not.

Kobo ebook readers will be losing their ability to read web articles saved to the Pocket read-later service later this summer. Though Pocket integration has been available on Kobo devices for years, the functionality will stop working after August 15th, 2023, when Pocket will require all of its users to transition to Firefox accounts to log in.

@jarrod Happy day! Looks like Pocket integration may continue on. (But Readwise, you should totally still explore integration for Reader.) From an updated version of that @dcseifert article:

> It looks like Kobo readers might not lose Pocket integration after all. Mozilla, the maker of Firefox and current owner of Pocket, originally said in a support document that Kobo’s Pocket integration would stop working entirely after August 15th, 2023, when Pocket will require Firefox accounts to log in. In a statement to The Verge (coinciding with an update to that support document) Mozilla now says that existing users of the integration will not be affected, and that Kobo would update their devices to use the new logins.
