And the reasons to shutdown are pretty lame. “ But the way people save and consume content on the web has evolved, so we’re channeling our resources into projects that better match browsing habits today.”

They'll probably remove it now, and I am devastated about that, because I still use it pretty often with my Self-Hosted Omnivore.
I might see if I can find a way to prevent updates in the future. Or hopefully they just hide the Menu Option and keep the code intact so that I can use KoboMenu to re-enable it.
If anyone from Kobo is reading, please just hide it - don't remove all the code - thanks.
Hopefully this situation encourages more contribution and improvement to tools like these.
They'd have to implement some kind of login, but they they should just be able to build some kind of converter between whatever format and the format that is expected by the Kobo device.
I have an RSS feed from RoyalRoad that new episodes come in on. Using IFTTT, I have an action set up to, whenever a new item comes in on that feed, add the _URL_ of it to my Pocket account. Then, Kobo just syncs the Pocket articles automatically, and the new episode is added.
