One of the few reasons I still use Pocket is actually for that end-of-the-year synopsis of what I’ve read. (Their emailed recommendations aren’t too bad either.) I just checked my email to see where I ranked. Apparently I’ve moved from the top 1% of readers on their platform to the top 5%! I suspect it’s more a reflection that as I’ve been owning more of my reading data on my own website, I give less and less of it to Pocket. While people are generally bad about making estimates of this sort, I feel like I’ve actually read a lot more online than I have in years past.

I’ll have to take some time to dig into the data I’ve collected to see what the truth is.
