Thanks, I need to remember to do this tomorrow.

Just had to entirely do a fresh install like 6 hours ago.

What does it do?

Disables the builtin Pocket extension.

I looked up "pocket.enabled" in about:config, but there wasn't an entry by that exact name. There was "extensions.pocket.enabled" though. Is that the same?
