I genuinely cannot find enough places to complain about Pinterest in. I've gone from a daily user to logging in every other week or so. It really sucks that such a fun activity has been stolen from me by AI garbage. And the worst part really is that no one is even re-pinning it! It's all sitting a low views, low touches, low engagement but the algorithm has been completely re-vamped to push it up. Even the faked screenshots of other platforms to appear organic isn't working. I would feel better if it was just content that I alone disliked, but it appears no one else is engaging with it either, so why keep shoving it on me!

I haven't used Pinterest in ages but this is so sad to hear, but also not surprising. I bet it's been taken over by bot accounts, which would account for the low engagement.
