I don't see this as "perfect". Far from it, in fact. The whole problem that Pinterest is trying to solve is a thing that they and other social networks have created in the first place. The problem, from what I can tell, comes from filter bubbles[0]. By following the yellow brick road of INCREASE USER RETENTION, we've seen greedy algorithms built that don't care what content people view as long as they keep viewing it. I would like to believe that if these filters were toned down or turned off, a wider source of topics would come in for a search, and maybe this more varied information diet would nip some of these problematic echo-chambers in the bud. Then again, maybe this is something that, once created, can't just disappear again... --- On a side-note, I'd like to remind everyone that Pinterest is a garbage site that lives off of hijacking search results, and them blackhole-ing results due to unwelcome content is a huge irony[1]. --- [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_bubble https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filter_bubble [1]: look at all the angry reddit posts --> https://www.google.com/search?q=pinterest+ruined+google+image+search+site:www.reddit.com https://www.google.com/search?q=pinterest+ruined+google+imag...
