What about Pinterest? Laugh all you want but they have more users than Twitter.

My wife uses Pinterest any time she needs a list with pictures - things like recipes (organized by type - dinner meals, breakfasts, cakes, etc), outfit/clothing ideas, inspiration for projects around the house, etc. I’ve got lists in Google Keep and links in Pinboard.in but she’s a very visual thinker and prefers having pictures.

I set up https://github.com/pinry/pinry for myself. Sadly there is no way I'll ever be and to get my wife to switch. A big part of the draw of Pinterest for her is that she can quickly pull in links from other people's Pinterest boards.

God I hate Pinterest.
Not only do they steal pictures in bad quality from other sites and write their website in such a way to always come out on top of search results, it also takes multiple seconds to close the webpage.
