Comment on AI slop is ruining all of our favorite places to scroll

My thoughts - exactly.

I was an advid Pinterest user until the excessive ads around 3 years ago, and that was right as the AI art was starting to flood the place. I just liked looking at Anime art, memes, and making boards of my favorite media cause something about categories makes my brain tick. But I feel like Pixelfed doesn’t meet the exact needs Pinterest people have.
I might be dumb but from a quick test on both Pixelix (Android app I use) and the Pixelfed Webapp, Collections seems to be a collection of posts by you, not a collection of saved posts from others. They’re either a draft, public, or followers only, not private option. Also the bookmark button seems to not work on either client either, like what does it even do?
Anyway, yeah Pinterest is a hellhole now, but until Pixelfed cleans up the UI a bit more and adds more features, I don’t think it can really be called a replacement.
