how the hell someone can use pinterest for more than one hour a week? Just accidentally browse it when trying to search an image on the web and curse the ux team to have hidden the download button in a way that you click the image and brings you in a completely unrelated site with 10000 images except the one you wanted
Before they went all out nuclear with ads, promoted content, shops, and AI slop, I was using Pinterest a shit ton to look at fanart and memes (mostly stolen/reposted art, but real human art at least). I’d be on there for an hour or so every other day tbh, I liked making boards of my fixations and shit.
Then the app went to hell a few years back and I ditched it, because the web version sucks, and I didn’t know about LibRedirect instances. Now I just don’t bother with the place anymore.
If you’re a visual artist it’s great for finding reference and inspiration material. When I’m not sure exactly what I want to draw I’ll usually scroll Pinterest for a bit, find something that gives me an idea, then use Pinterest again to source reference material for said idea. So if I’m really in the mood to draw I can definitely rack up a couple hours in Pinterest a week.
