Better then Pocket
After the August 2023 migration of Pocket to Mozilla, I cannot login to my Pocket app in mobile, no matter how hard I try and how many workaround I do. Moved to Instapaper all of my saves for more than a decade. Also, Mozilla don't reply to help requests, so don't bother. Just use Instapaper.
Safety

Instapaper may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
