    On Firefox? I’ve used it for years and this is the first time I hear of Pocket

    And then people get all pissy when Google or Microsoft show a pop-up of a new feature…

      Yes, Microsoft is especially bad in this regard. For this whole spring have I clicked hundeds of times that I’m aware that my trial is ending. They also introduced a new feature that they promote on a space that takes literally half the screen. And youtube premium, oh boy.

        This is… not quite related to the topic, no? Trial ending warning is not a “hey, here’s a new feature you might want to try out”.

        Could you elaborate? I used to use Edge as my daily driver, now it’s my secondary browser. I have no clue what you mean here.

          Not speaking of edge here, but the Microsoft fabric/power platform. They tried to sell me some feature for months and eventually i missclicked and started the trial. Now they are notifying that the trial ends in x days and they’ve been extending it so it never ends
