Does this mean anyone can use the code to create a new Pocket?
EDIT: Is this the Github site for the actual Pocket "engine" or the clients using Pocket?

Until the shutdown announcement, that GH repo had been up for several years, but incomplete. IIRC there was some client code but not much else.
It looks like following the announcement, Pocket developers uploaded a monorepo (which basically means an emergency dump of everything, not organized and prepped for public consumption). It's better than nothing, but it will likely take some community effort to turn it into a full, self-hosted solution.
It would be great if someone were able to make a self-hosted Pocket, and Kobo exposed a value in the conf that would simply let you change the Pocket endpoint URL to whatever alternate self-hosted instance you have.
