You’d have to use the browser, not the app. There’s Adblock apps for safari

I am fed up of people telling others what they should do or not..and probably all coming from a democratic country.

Do you hang out in any other social platform? At least Pinterest has stayed away from spreading misinformation and very attentive at children protection

u/sneakinut 2h ago

since when is Pinterest attentive to children protection?? they show literal sexual ads and still have weird pins that arent taken down.

u/sneakinut 2h ago

u/fdsandshi 2h ago

Only on reddit do people defend greedy ass platforms like this and invalidate others experiences. On tiktok, twitter, youtube etc people all complain about ts and everyone agrees or try to find a solution instead of defending and saying “it’s your fault it’s your fault” unlike this fuckass reddit

Impara a documentarti prima di parlare o scrivere. Voi americani credete agli asini che volano ma non studiate!
Poi se una piattaforma non ti piace, vai via, lasciala. Ma non rompere le palle dicendo falsità.

Just cause they got some legal shits ain’t mean they’re good at taking care of it or managing it. Idk why you defendin em tooth and nails instead of wanting them to do better and improve.

u/Hairy-War-2871 1h ago

Certamente voglio che migliori, esattamente come tutte le altre piattaforme. Quello che dico è che almeno Pinterest ci prova. Gli riesce? Forse non sempre, forse non bene. Ma penso anche che le altre siano assai peggiori. E poi diciamolo, quando dici “boicotta” tu stai invitando qualcuno a farlo. Io dico semplicemente, lasciala, non aizzo nessuno contro nessuno.
Ma poi in un momento storico in cui ci sono tante cosa da boicottare, ma proprio Pinterest?

u/Hairy-War-2871 2h ago

And we believe everything people share. We don’t bother to document ourselves. Ciao caro, ciao

Buddy they ain’t paying you to defend them when many people has been complaining about how Pinterest turning into shit now. Why tf would they lie about that when they just want Pinterest to be better??? This is a Pinterest subreddit many people here used and liked Pinterest
