Both tools do their category well, but the specifics differ. Here's what each one is good at and where it tends to fall short.
Pocket has shut down and is no longer available. Any of the active alternatives is a safer bet.
Dewey is a niche tool aimed at one specific problem: saving and organising bookmarks from social platforms. It ingests from X, Bluesky, LinkedIn, Threads, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, Mastodon, Substack, and Truth Social, and puts them in a unified library with AI auto-tagging and nested folders. Browser extension (Chrome) and web app only, no native mobile. Pricing: Free (manual sync, one account), Pro at $10/mo monthly or $7.50/mo annually, Lifetime at $225, and an $8.50 one-off 'Export Pass' that unlocks the export feature for 48 hours without a full subscription.
Pocket launched in 2007 as Read It Later, pioneered the modern read-later category, and was acquired by Mozilla in 2017. For nearly two decades it was the default way to save web articles and read them later on any device, with a clean reader view and optional offline access. Mozilla shut Pocket down on July 8, 2025. All user data was permanently deleted on November 12, 2025. The apps and extensions no longer work, and any integrations built against the Pocket API have stopped. If you still have an export file from before that date, most modern alternatives (Instapaper, Readwise Reader, Raindrop, Matter, Keep) can import it.
