As an open source alternative to poket, you can use wallabag.
Or you can store url through shaarli too...

#72Earlier quoted context omitted.
It became nagware, which among several other (mis)features was a killer.
Do you mean that it repeatedly asks for payment? I purchased a license long ago and did not know how bad it treated free users in recent versions. That being said, I still do not regret for paying for this extension. It is still the only browser extension I ever paid for and just like back then with Tree Style Tab for Firefox this is the extension that keeps me from switching away from Chrome.
It broke flow, which is the greater offense.
I've not used it in years.

#73Feedly (https://feedly.com) works great for me. I browse all my RSS feeds in the app and whatever seems interesting, I can tag it to read later.

#74I forward the link to the "Saved Messages" chat on Telegram. Nifty Feature.

#75I pin the tab in Chrome, then move most (when eventually not read) to a bookmark folder called 'Tsundoko', never to be seen again.
This means the most important ones are read, and the ones that don't matter are no longer taking up my "background" attention.

#76I open them in a new tab and come back to them when ready. This ensures I’ll actually read them relatively soon. Bookmarks would be forgotten about by me and some more involved method seems like overkill.
What if I have 6 chome windows each with 10-30 tabs?
I rarely have a Chrome window with less than 50 tabs, but at least it'll encourage you to take the time to read the articles.

Linux OS with SSD really gave me a different picture. I have 338 tabs open right now across 5 chrome windows. It is taking up almost all of my RAM but the response is very very quick. I had HDD earlier and my OS used to crash every now and then. Now I keep putting my computer to hibernate/sleep and I am able to retrieve history up until a month.

#78I use Firefox everywhere. When using phone, during commute to/from the job, I send links to desktop using Firefox's built in feature. When using desktop at the job, I read articles instantly or send them to desktop at home. At desktop at home I have Panorama View extension [1] to avoid tab clutter. I plan to install Wallabag [2] on my server to have place to categorize and store already read articles. [1] https://add…

From phone to desktop? Is it possible in an iPhone?
