C Black (ID: 000000bba7c95d02) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 03/30/2021 Extremely slow performance in Brave browser

Ralph Marrett (ID: 000000d5877f1dc5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/22/2021 Great extension. One thing you can do that is not mentioned (and which I haven't found anywhere else) is to select all the items shown (little bit bit tricky but achievable!), copy with ctrl+c, and then paste into a text document. You get a handy & concise list of all your pocket files, with links, to save or share..
