Save to Pocket (mini)
Adds a toolbar button to save the current page to Pocket, without requiring the "all data" or "all websites" permissions.
I think Pocket is great, but I don't like how their Chrome extension requires so many permissions. (It even makes use of those permissions to e.g. modify the Hacker News page. I appreciate this can be turned off via their settings but I'd prefer it didn't even have the capability.)
This extension is the minimal code to auth into Pocket and save URLs into it.

There's no Save to Pocket icon in my toolbar anywhere, so there's no way for this to work.

Excellent! Small, quick and easy. The official Pocket extension had caused severe CPU spikes on my laptop and it took me weeks to find out what was causing it. I didn't need half the features it had anyway. This extension here gives me all I need - add a new item, done. No bloat. Thank you!

Супер расширение. Родное от покета лагало и не всегда давало сохранять страницы. С данным расширением ни одной ошибки! Добавляет все!
Great extension.
Great extension.
Doesn't work most of the time.
Love it for the concept alone. Now all a need is an Android app that provides just the 'save to' Pocket functionality without the downloading/reading functionality (I read using an e-reader.)

I uninstall the official pocket extension after trying the mini one. The official one is really annoying. A popup box is shown after each saving. Each time I have to click the "x" to dismiss it otherwise it keep blocking a part of the webpage for a few second. Really annoying!

I uninstalled the official Pocket app once they began requiring cross-domain cookies. I missed Pocket but it wasn't worth being tracked across the web. Now, with this extension, I can use Pocket again!

Nice to be able to easily save things to pocket without granting access to all of my data.

Thanks for making this! I appreciate getting 99% of the functionality without having to give them 100% access to all of my browsing.
