So, where to go next?

I'd love an easier self hosted option too. In the meantime, if you are in the Apple world then Goodlinks is a privacy friendly option for saving articles to read later. I haven't found a decent alternative that can add articles via email like Omnivore. My workaround is to get the RSS link from Substack and add these to my RSS reader that I self host (FreshRSS).

I’m looking into migrating to FreshRSS from omnivore now.

Does [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/165nnk6/comment...) solve the email ingestion issue for you?

Damn they're giving under 3 weeks to export before you lose all of your data? That's insane! If I were on an extended vacation and missed this, my data would be gone when I get back.

They _really_ should increase that to be longer! Switch to read-only, but give at least 3-6 months to export. That's crazy otherwise

Ugh this is the only read-it-later service I ever found that "stuck". It was so simple and good. This sucks.

I came from Instapaper after their price hike to Omnivore and went back to Instapaper. I felt that Omnivore was over-complicated with their "every folder is a filter" structure. Instapaper feels much more straightforward.

Feed in gives you an email address for newsletters

I've heard of this but didn't use it because all of my email newsletters are on substack and substack supports RSS. Also, with substack RSS, you get a feed per newsletter whereas Kill The Newsletter gives you one feed for all newsletters going to their address.

I have not tested them yet, but (actually) self-hosted potential alternatives: linkwarden [0], hoarder [1] [0] https://github.com/linkwarden/linkwarden [1] https://github.com/hoarder-app/hoarder Edit: fixed wording

Ugh anyone have a rundown of how good the parsing is on wallabag vs instapaper vs pocket (or something else)?

I had been using Pocket until a few months ago, and pocket's parser was a little better. It wouldn't choke on GitHub repos, for example.

But both would miss significant article content :/

tl;dr: They got acqui-hired and are shutting the app and service down. Ugh, it was so good! Self-hosting it seems quite complicated, though. I really hope somebody will step up and offer a hosted version of it.

Yes, just as it is right now I would love a cheap alternative. No need for fancy speech or AI features from my Side. Do one thing and do it good...

Wallabag seems to be 11€/year: https://www.wallabag.it/en

I use Raindrop[0] for all bookmarks and have flirted with Omnivore and Wallabag over the years. But I always come back to just using Raindrop and "Unsorted" for my read-it-laters. I've got a feed into Reeder from here which works well too. At the end of the day a likely next step after reading something is to want to bookmark it so this workflow works well for me.
