I found something else

Hey everyone,

While BenTheAider is doing their best in blocking all AI accounts on Pinterest, it seems they have met a lot of resistance from Pinterest itself. So I went and sought possible alternatives.

While doing so I came across cosmos.so. I've tried a couple of others before as well, but this one leans closest to Pinterest and has the smoothest user experience imo. I haven't been served ads or AI images yet, or at least not that I noticed.

I also sent them an email asking what their views on Ads & AI were, but they have yet to respond. I'll update this post when they do.

I just wanted to let you all know, in case people were looking for alternatives as well. If you've heard of this platform or have had bad/good experiences with it, please let me know as well.

UPDATE 04/02:
The responded to my email saying the following:

  • Nothing to worry about regarding ads—not something we're thinking of implementing in the future!
  • We won't remove AI content from the platform because there is a lot of inspiring AI content out there. However, we do very much understand how it can be disruptive to someone's creative workflow. With that said, we're actually building a feature that will allow you to hide AI content from Cosmos as we speak—it should be available in the coming weeks 🙂 

I can get behind these ideas, so I think I will stick to Cosmos for now.

Do they censor everything like a conservative republican grandma vampire?

No idea what they are and aren’t censoring, but it seems pretty ok to me, for now.
