What are good alternatives to the Pocket app?
I just found out today that the Pocket app will be shutting down on July 8th, 2025, and I want to know of any other apps that I use to save articles to read offline later.

The pocket app has been closed by Mozilla. I tried to use Instapaper to replace it, but it was a nightmare. I downloaded it to Safari (on MacBook Air), created an account, and it opens the Instapaper home page. From there, I cannot get the icon to appear in the dock or elsewhere, or to see how to save articles. I consulted MacWorld and they said to click on the "extra" button on the home page. There is no such thing on my home page. Or, go to Settings to get Extras, and I have no Settings button.
There are previous inquiries about Instapaper in Community and some say "This question has been removed."
Has any other user connected successfully to Instapaper or does it just not work on Macs?

Instapaper looks like a suitable alternative. You may also want to consider Matter.
