This is actually sad - because i have limited use for either of those products. I likely want the VPN, but the value of having it on my phone is minimal to me.
So while i think i will get the VPN, Pocket on the otherhand... is just meh to me. Products where i give some cloud company a ton of data, even if a good company, is just not an interesting problem for an honest company to solve.
VPN is meaningful. Privacy in general is meaningful. Basic necessities like identity and communication are meaningful.
Pocket is a really nice feature and a good UX, but just not interesting to me for the company goals. If it makes them money i'm happy, but it's just mildly more interesting to me than Mozilla Tiktok might be.
I really hope they embrace the essentials to the web, and make a profit doing so. VPN seems like the right direction (though i'm dying for it on desktop). Pocket, less so... to me.
