## What it is
wallabag is a self-hostable web application for saving web pages to read later, extracting article content while stripping ads and distractions. It offers imports from Pocket, Instapaper, and Omnivore, plus mobile apps, browser extensions, RSS feeds, and an API.

## Use cases
- save articles to read later without ads
- self-host a Pocket alternative
- migrate my Pocket export to an open source read-it-later app
- extract clean article content from web pages
- keep a private archive of saved links on my own server
- read saved articles on my e-reader or phone

## When to choose
- you want full ownership of your saved-article archive instead of a closed service
- you need a self-hosted read-it-later app with apps, extensions, and an API
- you want to import from Pocket, Instapaper, Pinboard, or Omnivore

## When to avoid
- you want a zero-maintenance hosted service without running a server (though wallabag.it exists)
- you need collaborative or social bookmarking features rather than personal reading
- you cannot run a PHP web server or Docker
