What the hell is "the best of Pocket's content"? I switched to FireFox to avoid stuff like this.

It's a bit annoying if you don't need it, but can be hidden/disabled.

It's a low impact way to support Firefox.
Mozilla / Firefox owns Pocket.
You are literally correct, but that doesn't answer the question at all.
Yeah, doing that last mile in your head is left as an excersise to the reader.
Question is: why is it still 'marketed' seperately?
It still has extensions and apps for every major browser and platform. They want more people to use it and buy premium subscriptions to support Mozilla and make them less dependent on search engine revenue.
