    It’s literally in the same place as all other UI customising, though. I consider that as convenient as it gets.

        with every fucking install on every machine. for years.

        a waste of space and time. always has been. but did moz listen? no. because fanboys like you mock the user and give them the confidence to do stupid shit. lame CEOs, failed TB, fxa servers…geez the list of absolute wrong directions moz went is so long.

        praising freedom and a decentralized internet, but store links, passwords etc on their shit american servers. the only good idea moz has was to start coding a browser…after that it just went downhill…according to the decline of users of the years. what is their market share today and why?

      Wasn’t it in about:config? Or maybe it used to be.

        Yes, to completely turn it off, it’s an about:config setting: extensions.pocket.enabled

        Removing it from the toolbar just hides it, but keeps it running.

        Could have been back when the button was part of the address bar. But that was forever ago.

    ?

    You can just right click on it and hit “remove from toolbar.” That’s all it takes.

    Putting it back in my toolbar for the purposes of taking this screenshot was actually more clicks.

    You can actually do this with most, but not all, of the toolbar items. You can even 86 the refresh button that way if you’re feeling truly perverse.
