Mozilla seemed really determined to kill Pocket, once they had made the decision. I saw multiple other companies reaching out about trying to acquire/save Pocket, but as far as we can tell, nothing came out of it.

Seems rather dickish, given that they acquired the company in the first place. Not what I would expect of an "open source" company.

I hope if the Pocket guys ever quit Mozilla or are laid off, they'll be in a position to speak about what happened.
