What's even worse about Pinterest is that almost all the images are derived from an outside source, so you're following this insane route to get at the original content:
source image-> indexed by Pinterest -> Google index of Pinterest index -> Pinterest page -> source image.
I can't believe that Google is incapable of navigating around this, but Pinterest would probably block them from indexing if they did.
- frandroid 10y agoPinterest would be foolish to block indexing by Google, though.
- alphonsegaston 10y agoYeah, I would think so too, but if you spend any time with their apps, you can see how user hostile they are. The UI is awful, data is incredibly difficult to export. They really want to lock you into their narrow channels.
