Pocket to Wallabag, Hardcore Edition

Posted by Claudius Coenen on May 23rd, 2025 | No Comments »

⚠️ Note: once the Pocket CSV import is merged, this entry might be obsolete. This is about the import from the Pocket API.

I’ve been using Pocket since 2009, back when it was still called “Read it Later”. I use it a whole freakin’ lot. Yes, I usually self-host my things, yes I know about wallabag and a couple other similar things. Pocket never gave me any trouble, for a while I even paid for it. It worked and got out of my way. It was, essentially, exactly what I needed.

Pocket is being shut down in a couple of weeks.

And I have 32.000 entries in there that I would like to keep.

SONOS sans App

Coarse Fabric, black, this is the front grill of the speaker

SONOS speakers seem to be decent hardware. So when a friend mentioned the IKEA branded, SONOS produced Symfonisk speakers, I had to take a look. At 130€ for a single speaker, they are not exactly cheap, but they are certainly a lot cheaper than anything SONOS would usually offer. The build quality is good, audio quality is supposedly good. But the important question for me is: can I use them at a decent level of privacy? Is it possible to make these speakers useful without the SONOS app and a SONOS account and without sending usage information over to SONOS every couple of minutes? Let’s find out!
