Comparison
Pocket is gone. This one keeps the text.
Pocket closed on 8 July 2025, and the export window shut on 12 November 2025, after which the remaining data was deleted. If you did not export in time, there is nothing left to migrate, and no tool can recover it. What you can do is not repeat it. Norget stores the readable text of every page you save, inside your own account, and lets you export the whole archive as JSON whenever you like.
When not to pick us
There is no Pocket to pick any more. If you only want a free place to file links and never re-read them, Raindrop’s free tier is more generous than ours and you should use it.
| What | Norget | Alternative |
|---|---|---|
| Still exists | Norget wins this row. Yes | Shut down July 2025 |
| Keeps the page text | Norget wins this row. Yes, archived on save | Reader view, lost on shutdown |
| Survives link rot | Norget wins this row. Yes, the text is yours | No |
| Export your data | Norget wins this row. JSON, any time | Window closed, data deleted |
| Free tier | 100 saved items | The alternative wins this row. Was unlimited and free |
Questions
Can I import my old Pocket library?
Yes, if you kept your export. Unzip it and import part_000000.csv. If your export has more than one CSV file (part_000000.csv, part_000001.csv, and so on), upload each one in turn. Uploading a file again skips the links you already have. Older ril_export.html files work too. Without a saved export, Norget cannot recover data Pocket deleted after the export window closed on 12 November 2025. Subject to availability, the Pocket offer is for new free accounts opened between 11 and 19 November 2026 (UTC). The first 500 qualifying accounts can hold 1,000 saves instead of 100, granted once per account when a Pocket import takes it past 100 saves. See /pocket for current availability.
What stops the same thing happening here?
Two things, honestly stated. Your archive exports to JSON on demand, including the archived text, so you are never holding only a list of URLs. And the text lives in your account rather than being re-fetched from the original site, so it survives the page being taken down. Neither promises Norget will outlive you. It promises you can leave with everything.
