  • I use it to find inspiration for projects where I only have a rough idea of what I would like to build/make. Usually it’s enough to create a new board, enter a vague search term, add some things that seem fitting to your vague idea and then Pinterest does a really good job in suggesting things similar to the results you already added. It narrows down the search results by what you save.


  • Idk about you but I use pinterest to find inspo for all kinds of things. For that to work, the posts need extensive hashtagging/indexing that goes beyond the occasional hashtag on Mastodon I think. In Pinterest, I really want their Algorithm to find the stuff I don’t know yet I’m looking for. If that kind of search existed, we wouldn’t need a specific Pinterest clone I guess - maybe a topic-board thing on Pixelfed would be enough if the indexing would be sufficient.
