How to save web articles for reading at a later time

Macworld:

Many services have come and gone, but the two earliest, Pocket and Instapaper, have remained under development and are up to date. Evernote is an alternative, although it’s more of a “junk drawer” service in letting you collect all kinds of things, including clipping web articles, and then offers robust options to search later.

Apple added Reading List to Safari across mobile and desktop operating systems several releases ago and has continued to improve it. While minimally featured, it may scratch your itch well enough you don’t need to install additional software.

Each service has at least a robust free tier; Reading List is the only one without premium option that typically adds better searching, sync, and offline options.

Let’s look at the options, premium cost, tradeoffs, and how to configure each service.

I’ve tried them all and I still come back to and frequently use the Pocket service.
