Never heard of Fakespot, but Pocket is a loss. I don't use it as much anymore, but it was a very convenient way to keep my reading queue. I mean, honestly, it didn't really solve the problem for me completely, because I saved way more that I read, but at some point I relied on it heavily.

Fakespot is great. Basically tells you how many customer reviews are real vs bots. Helps with amazon purchases determining what is counterfeit vs real product

I've always been suspicious about how many brand-name products that I wouldn't give a second thought about in a store were marked as D or F.
