I loved it for getting inspired, now its a few regular ads and then 10 chinese fake products that cut diamonds, paste that glues everything possible, gives you superpowers as a bonus.
Im seriously getting tired of it.
there’s Pinetta, but its in development phase. Unknown if federated
It is federated
Not entirely the exact same thing unfortunately. I have tried Pixelfed and Kimis but the content isn’t as much nor good as Pinterest.
Pinterest is becoming garbage day by day. Advertisements and every day “Your pin has been removed for rule violation”.

Was there recently a push towards stricter rules?
My experience with Pintrest is entirely based around looking for images on Google and getting blocked by a login window.
I have no idea, they changed their rules towards adult content at least. Rumor goes they have an AI-bot flagging pins.
I think they are doing this to get more younger people on the platform.
My irezumi motives collection is dissapearing day by day, and oil painting tutorials too because occasional nudity, but ads for weapons, some things i cannot describe and religious propaganda? Overflowing.
Pixelfed is sadly more oriented to photo sharing. Never heard of kimis, i guess its time to migrate or just forget about it.
Having an ad-free Pinterest-esque option sounds like a dream. I stopped using it a while ago because of all the obnoxious ads.
If anyone has the time, I’d love to hear more about what people use pinterest for, because I don’t actually have any idea what it’s for but I know it’s popular. I think most people in my bubble (tech) just have it blocked from their search results.
I wanted to have it blocked from the results too, because it plagues the image search.
Its basically a pin wall, where you can organise pins (images) into collections. They had a good algo that recommended similar things for an existing collection.
I used it to look at how other people are painting their miniatures, to search for short painting tips and so on.
I‘d love to have that. The closest I know of is pinry, but it’s not federated.
