So Pinterest is kind of a window-shopping app, but initially it was for craft, design, and DIY ideas. Pinterest as an outlet for grey sweaters is called Etsy. I stopped using the app a year or more ago because ads took over half of my feed. Videos auto-playing, inappropriate ads that caused me to not feel comfortable browsing the site in public, and while not directly the company's fault, the click-bait "You'll never believe these hacks" links. More ads and monetization done poorly will finish the company off, not save it. How to save it, I'm not sure. One place for improvement might be to clean up the dead links that have accumulated over the years. It gets old when you find something interesting, but the thumbnail is all that's left of the article.
