How do I get rid of Pocket in Firefox 57? It won't take no for an answer.
The question was asked before re Firefox 54. Now we have 57 and I have tried to delete Pocket and it won't go away. I don't like it because it's 'too helpful' -- I don't want to be confronted with Big Media's headlines every day, and I don't need Pocket, don't want it taking over my computer. Firefox already has a bookmark app so why do we need two? I don't even really need one, but I don't mind the star, but not the arrow representing Pocket. I hate it. I like simple, and I like to choose my own interests and Big Media Propaganda is not an interest of mine other than I try to avoid it. I have windows 7 Pro and 10 for Outlook.
