Review Summary
Wallabagger is praised for its ability to save articles for later reading, support self-hosting, and provide optional tagging and content saving. However, many users struggle with a complicated and poorly documented setup process, particularly obtaining necessary credentials and API tokens. Several report non-functional extension features and frustrating repetitive setup across devices. Despite its potential as a self-hosted Pocket alternative, the extension would benefit from clearer instructions, improved user interface, and enhanced multi-device usability.
Pros
- Allows saving webpages for later reading, similar to Pocket.
- Supports self-hosting for full data control.
- Can save page content, helpful for sites with login walls.
- Recent updates support Manifest V3 and OAuth authentication.
- Supports tagging saved articles and allows managing them (mark as read, delete).
Cons
- Setup process is confusing with insufficient or unclear instructions, especially on obtaining Client ID and Client Secret.
- Extension fails to obtain API token, making it unusable for some users, particularly with hosted wallabag services.
- Extension options page features (like 'Check URL' button) are non-functional or unclear.
- Lacks user-friendly features like listing recent items or unread count on the icon.
- Requires repeated setup on multiple devices, making it tedious to use across computers.
