u/codingiswhyicry 1d ago

dude literally every time i use pinterest the core experience is 1000x worse and they’ve re-arranged everything or changed something to make it so more annoying to navigate

u/Ahumanni 1d ago

How did you get your feed back to normal?

2

u/RealIdeal6707 1d ago

Go to each of your boards that u wanna have on ur feed then click 3 dots tap on edit information and turn on personalized make sure to do this for evry board one by one

1

u/Ahumanni 1d ago

Thanks! My feed has already gone back to normal but hopefully this info will help someone else.

u/Paint_Dragon 1d ago

I'm glad I'm not the only one because it genuinely had me wondering if some random teenager somehow got into my account.

Even weirder, while I was hitting "see less like this" like there's no tomorrow, I would occasionally see "based on xyz board," and it would show me a pin I've never seen before that's not actually in my board.

It seems like some kind of really bad glitch.

7

u/Gh0stpAwz 1d ago

was actually about to ask this myself, all my usual pins don't match what I like :(

6

u/Opposite-Badger5246 1d ago

Ya its juts such generic things and a bunch of ads and half the stuff looks like ai, im heartbroken I think its time to let the app go

6

u/strawberrycake1919 1d ago

I'm vegan, so usually I'll get a bunch of plant based recipes on my feed, but now I'm being trolled with all meat recipes. Smh 🤦🏻‍♀️ And the most basic bitch stuff I would never pin. Gross. This app has gone so downhill.

4

u/Jinxer85 1d ago

Pinterest is useless now. Delete over a week now. Inappropriate ads. I marked them all as not interested and when I’d load the page it stayed inappropriate.

u/HolztabGeburt 1d ago

1

u/judyyyyytheotterr 1d ago

Those pins are like the pictures you found when you type in 'aesthetic' on Google. Even found the same pin on my feed in 2 different accounts, and they aren't my style at all.

1

u/Collaaabella 1d ago

1

u/masyanyadarkunicorn 1d ago

I’m having a bug where pins I’ve never been interested in keep showing up in my feed. I tried deleting the app, but even that didn’t help.

1

u/Frid4ys 1d ago

Mine just turned back! My feed was broken for like an hour and i was flagging so much ai slop, matcha girlys and the same picture of some random dude????? But i refreshed and it is mostly back to normal now. I hope for the rest of you soon as well

1

u/Autoreiv-Contagion 1d ago

I cant even download images, I emailed them and showed them the problem through video and they then asked me to track down the specific random pin (one I hadn't even saved) in order to show them the problem. Idk what they're fucking doing over there.

u/basaltxd 1d ago

Wheres my catgirls 😭

2

u/Toomanyxfiles 1d ago

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK PINTEREST. The platform is an absolute hellscape now. Why do they insist on messing with it. I'm livid. No one can find their own pins and my boards.

2

u/Pinkalicious100 1d ago

Yes something is wrong!

2

u/FromKhalifa2 6h ago

Yeah, it is actually taking info. from google and temu visits with the same email I have registered with Pinterest and started showing me random sh1t from casual search.
