I think Mozilla found the perfect solution to services. They provide a service and open source the implementation [1]. This gives a "just works" option (which is still probably setting a pretty high privacy bar because it's Mozilla) and a fully self-hosted ultra-private option for those who want to go the extra mile.

As someone else said in here, I don't think they've open sourced the Pocket server software...

At least I haven't seen it yet.
