Yes that is true. Equally it could be argued that We may Sync Bookmarks in Firefox without any need to integrate Pocket. Presumably Mozilla determined that Pocket was a desirable feature worth having. What I do not understand is why a perfectly good usable addon has to be removed from *some* Firefox builds in order to integrate Pocket. Who made that decision and on what grounds was it made ? What is wrong with allowing the user to choose integrate or addon ? Why do we prevent the free choice to use the old style Pocket in only some Firefox builds. (Or are we heading towards a situation where the Old Pocket is removed as an option for all Firefox users.) I am able to understand the statement > Pocket partnership is not about money. >It is primarily about driving Firefox Accounts sign-ups. >Firefox Accounts and Sync are a major part of Mozilla's efforts to drive user >retention, >which is a major part of the bigger effort to drive growth in Firefox users. I don't know whether decisions have been made to try to move Firefox users away from the potentially unreliable Syncing of Bookmarks with Firefox into Syncing with Pocket instead possibly that is part of the reasoning for this odd situation? _______________________________________________ governance mailing list governance@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/governance
