I love Pinterest but the amount of AI art is insane and people are constantly stealing and reposting other people’s works, but instead of removing AI art or stolen art they instead remove art that has the slightest amount of exposed skin for being ‘too sexual’

[@myprofilepictureisafish]

As an example I just went to see what posts have been removed on my pinterest lately and the newest one was a drawing of Marceline and Princess Bubblegum kissing. I get not allowing nudity and stuff on your app but this is insane 😭

[@missingtrash]

Oml I also get this problem!! Quite a few times now I’ve been emailed by Pinterest saying that they removed or flagged an image from one of my multiple boards and suggested for me to look at them and remove anything inappropriate. I usually ignored these because, again, I have a lot of Pinterest boards and I’m not looking through all of them just to find something that I know isn’t even inappropriate. Then, every single time, I get an email a few days later saying they reviewed that image they flagged and unflagged it. It’s annoying but I just ignored them and they fixed themselves on their own.

Dude not just art theft but their new issue where if someone deletes their account, and you saved one of their posts, it will say YOU POSTED IT! I’ve gotten several copyright claims from them for things I didn’t even upload, I’m TERRIFIED I’m going to get banned. And most of them weren’t even art, it’s just a pretty picture of a cookie platter that I saved to a board five years ago or something. I hope they change this feature because I’m so scared I’ll get in trouble. Edit: also same goes for the pins that are “against community guidelines”, they send me an email that (basically) says “oh yeah by the way we reinstated it, you’re not in trouble, but if you do this again you may have to ban you.” Like bro, if it’s against guidelines DELETE IT! I’m not going to remember to remove an oddly specific post I saved a month ago.

[@callmebunny]

Same! I get these ALL the time. One time I apparently saved a pin that wasn't uploaded by the original creator of the drawing and then I got an E-Mail saying that the artist can now sue me or some shit, cuz I saved that pin??? How am I supposed to know with every single pin on there if that is the original artist of the drawing uploading it? And I also never posted anything myself on there, but it says also that there's one pin I supposedly uploaded that got taken down. Thanks to your comment I now at least know the mechanics behind that, but that doesn't make any sense. Why does Pinterest hate its users???

my account got deactivated back in 2023, it got re-activated the same day a few hours later but,after a few months, pinterest just makes me invisible to socialize with people. like, if i were to make a comment on a pin or reply to a comment it's INVISIBLE for everyone.. also when i heart pins nd comments it's also invisible and i don't show up. it's so annoying to the point where i had to stop posting on my main acc, nd make an alt just to socialize with people/post. it's like pinterest shadowbanned me from socializing... idk if they banned me because of saving others posts but it's aggravating.

i remember when i had a posted pin where lot's of people were talking on, i replied to lots of the comments but no one replied. i went on my alt and saw that i wasn't even there replying when i was. it's super embarrassing too when somebody asks me something nd i can't reply. ☠️

[@selvi_fang]

Honestly, while I do hate the sheer number of AI art on Pinterest, one of the other most annoying functions of Pinterest is that you can be flagged down for "breaking the rules" by "posting inappropriate art", without ever actually posting anything on Pinterest. I did some research and essentially, even if you don't actually post something on your own account, if you have saved a pin from someone else and their account doesn't exist anymore or it was deleted, from my understanding of it, YOU can have a pin THEY posted turn into a pin YOU posted on Pinterest. Literally there's no way to fix this I don't think, which is really annoying because honestly why??? AND I HATE THE ADS. My biggest hatred of the app is undoubtedly how many diaper ads there are. Despite not being "inappropriate" they just make me extremely uncomfortable, especially with how the cinematography for the ads goes. I don't know if it's just me who hates the diaper ads with a burning passion, but I can handle most other ads relatively well, it's just the visceral discomfort they give me is unmatched.

I wouldn’t know about this because most of the art on Pinterest I look at is traditional art or official arts from like bsd 😭 I look at whispers and silly things, but I agree honestly

[@PreciseSpace]

I haven't been on Pinterest too long but I've noticed the amount of ads just go up and up. When scrolling thru its usually a couple posts, four ads, a couple posts, four ads, etc. Esp when many ads are multiple photos meaning when I try to swipe past them I end up just swiping thru the ad. It's annoying. Also as an artist posting on there I have a really hard time getting my art noticed. On any other platform I don't have too hard of a time getting my stuff seen, but on Pinterest I post pretty regularly and only very few posts ever get any attention at all. Im just not educated on the algorithm ig. Tho one thing I will say that I LOVE about Pinterest is HOME FEED TUNING! Sometimes it gets annoying when I save one post and then get a barrage of the same thing on my home feed, but I can just go into my home feed tuner and just turn off posts from something I don't want taking over my feed. Plus you if you see a post you hate you can just hide it and say "its irrelevant to me" to keep it from popping up again. The amount of control over the content you're shown is amazing.

the problem with posting art (or anything in general) on pinterest is how when you try to delete a pin, it doesn’t actually delete. i used to post on there sometimes and when i tried to delete my pins they never deleted and this can be a huge problem with art theft.. for example, even if someone steals/reposts art on pinterest and then deletes it, it won’t actually delete, it’ll just stay on the platform forever

[@typologycrisis]

I’m surprised that nobody brought up the problem with «violating community guidelines» for saving innocent pins that aren’t even yours when the Pinterest algorithm fed you those pins themselves… I had this beautiful photo of a person’s face emerging out of a water surface, and another cute cottagecore photo of a girl in a nice dress with very slight cleavage, and this was considered «sexual content and nudity»…??

To the point made against ads, it is especially noticeable if you have an ad blocker enabled. Often times you’ll scroll down and only see around 2-4 full pins on your screen (on a widescreen computer, no less). If the ads are removed, so much more empty space is staring at you. Current Pinterest makes me not want to scroll down further to find more inspiration. But I still have to love it.

Also them removing features? I work on organizing my boards a lot, and they got rid of the feature to make notes on a board. Then they got rid of the feature where you can find ideas specific to a section in the board. This one was especially annoying cus of my garbage board with over 30k pins on it. Now I can't look for pins specific to that board.

[@Im_voidy_lol]

I love how one of the people that voiced lines in the vid is under 1k! Thanks for supporting the community!!

“MOST of my experience on Pinterest is good”, girl that gave me ptsd to all those 18+ images and TikToks on there

[@Bepetoni]

I don't even save anything irl-ish - they still send me a "you might like this!" notification and it's some weird suggestive video of horrible quality 😭

[@AltKaxREAL]

​@@BepetoniTRUE i have no idea why Pinterest likes to get weird with those

[@galaxy_panda_kat]

I once saw in my violations two portraits of models one black one Asian, and they were taged as „nudity/adult content” like???? Those were faces! And then I got violation for another adult content because I saved a photo of a torso tattoo and there. Was. A. Bellybutton! Omg shocking, scandalous 🤯 I’m so done with Pinterest, but I still like to use it because it’s the best to find some good refrence photos or just nice pics, but my god the violation system is just so dumb

[@Skymoc4]

Another thing I'd like to ad on something I don't like about Pintrest is that when you save a an artwork post to folder or accidentally save it, you can't un-save the art/post. The only way to remove it from your folder is to *DELETE THE POST FROM PINTREST!*

[@artscribblistudio6362]

This is so well put together! And yes, I agree with all these points especially the AI art. The home page/recommendations are FLOODED now with AI. Its always disappointing when you do find that piece you want to pin and then 2 seconds later find out its not even created by an actual artist.

[@rindrr]

My experience as an artist has only been positive but the amount of Ai art is abundant.

[@StaticLlama]

I didn’t hate Pinterest until yesterday. THEY WON’T TAKE DOWN LITERAL R34. I was searching up a ship I shipped when I was little to show my friend and there was a literal R34 image of them, not to mention the characters are kids. And I don’t mean just inappropriate. Parts were shown. They weren’t doing anything but still what?? I reported it FOUR TIMES and it still isn’t taken down. Not to mention all the pins I got in trouble for saving because it’s inappropriate when there’s nothing wrong with them. WHOEVER IS REJECTING MY REPORTS NEEDS TO BE FIRED.

[@aesthetix3398]

Not art related, but I usually enjoy posting my opinions on Pinterest! (Usually considered controversial but doesn’t hurt anyone) and I have noticed they have taken some of my opinions down, or turned my comments off but let people bully others as a "joke".

[@aesthetix3398]

Or after I post my “controversial” opinions they decide to recommend me the opposite of what I agree with, sometimes even showing a meme saying how stupid my political ideology is.. maybe I’m being paranoid but I always click “not interested” and they showed it until I call it out on my page. 🤔

[@aesthetix3398]

ALSO THE ADS!!! They act like you posted a certain post when you didn’t, doesn’t play the audio, the s**** content is disgusting! And ofc the censorship of people’s opinions…

[@nicholasonema6162]

I can't believe the KZbin algorithm didn't show you to me earlier! I love your videos

[@Livvvin]

THE EDITING IS SO GOOOOOD!! I’m so exited to finish the video! So glad you’re uploading again💗

[@cereal_k1ller]

THE ART THEFT IS SO ACCURATE I KEEP SEEING IT EVERYWHERE

[@zamboozle3741]

oh goodie, i've been waiting for a video like this. you covered the art theft, sure, but there's another layer to it. if someone has the slightest inkling to go looking for the source of an image on pinterest (without the original post being from there) with something like reverse image search, the results are positively CLOGGED and CLUTTERED with exclusively pinterest results, thus burying the original post under pages and pages of pinterest links

[@LMASLS]

WAIT UR STYLE IS SO CUTE AND UR VOICE HONESTLY REMINDS ME OF JAIDEN ANIMATIONS!!

[@BlitzBlotz24]

0:15 so nobody gonna talk abt the six fingers? 🧍‍♂️

[@Sheabuttergirly]

As a pintrest creator, I actually have the same issues. All this AI art, pintrest turning off my comments for me, getting A TON of emails saying that I 'violated their guidelines'! Like tf I DID NOT post that, why are you blaming it on me? 😭 (anyways just discovered your channel and subbed

[@JOLLYFANGSTER]

Art+animation= superior

[@sleepy_cloud2501]

THANK YOU SO MUCH. Like thank you for bringing up the ai problem with Pinterest. It’s everywhere on my feed even though I never save it and always click uninterested. It’s even there when I’m trying to have archive photos for fashion inspiration.

[@aliceburokaite8664]

istfg I hate the comments that are like “this video was the most inspirational video I’ve ever seen,it’s inspired me to become an Ikea table ect.” Like they’re soooo annoying 😭

[@katie9646]

unrelated but I love your voice it's so comforting!! hope that's not weird haha. thanks for your amazing videos :)

[@Softlywool]

This made me actually start uploading to pinterest, ive thought about it so so many times, but honestly, same, theres so many little things wrong with it but it truly is my go to place and at worst ive still been able to find the artist via reverse image search

[@strry_night]

One thing that happened to me (that I was surprised, yet somewhat glad to not hear mentioned) is Pinterest would recommend me NSFW pins even though I didn’t even look that stuff up. My account is set to my actual age too (I’m under 18) so it’s even weirder they’re pushing that stuff to me. Luckily they’ve mainly stopped doing that, but it’s still weird.

[@AprLii1073]

fr like i wanted to get some cute innocent pictures of my fav character and next second i'm traumatised for the 265th time

[@sage.81]

My biggest issue with Pinterest is that I get like 15 emails a day saying "you'll love these pins"

[@chilly_shroom]

dude this is so true!!!!!! i used to post tons of art on pinterest back when i was a wee art baby and it was rlly awesome! i love this app yet hate its annoyingness at the same time lol! love the vid tho :3

[@Elisabeth-tq3jr]

I have a board for pictures of animals where I pin mostly pics of animals other people have uploaded. One time I got a notice that a pin I uploaded to my board “Animals” had been removed for being pornographic. Thing is, the only images I upload to that board myself are photos of my pets 🤨

[@luzdoesart]

i really enjoyed this video! this is the first video ive seen of you and its really fun to watch!

[@that_one_kid_in_your_class]

omg i actually love your art style! Your animations are also rlly good! You've got my subscription

[@AbstractMazie]

In general i love Pinterest, but the other day I was searching for inspo on a specific clothing style, And every single pin was a.i

[@LemnX-n1f]

An AI trained to inspect art and come to conclusion if the art was stolen or not and take down the post of the art theft would be pretty cool tbh

[@dementiaravenway]

They're gonna take action on my account for SAVING pins that I didn't UPLOAD. And I don't even know what those pins were. What made them think this was a good idea??

[@Sleeper_6875]

ai art on Pinterest just makes me so sad, some search terms end up having like 99% ai art, it’s insane and makes it so hard to find references or inspirations for some things

[@suharche5610]

Pinterest was sending me like 5-6 times a email saying that I was saved hateful content like what? 😭I wish I could love pinterest more, but their policy are so Confusing and wierd for me ngl. I just Share

[@lumity5374]

i never saw ai art on pinterest but its prob bc i have mostly memes comics and miniature/aesthetic and it's true a lot of art is not credited and it makes me said honestly as a fellow artist but i mostly agree with you and yeah some times pinterest can be pretty annoying ALSO I LOVE TOO THAT THERE ARENT A LOT OF VIDEOS PINTEREST AND TUMBLR HAVE MY HEART FOR THAT

[@CursedChildOfTheFae]

I made a side account for school projects and within a week they sent me an email telling me that someone was concerned for my mental health 💀💀

[@thewhisper8798]

SAME but it was just a meme 😭

[@vivianbrights8953]

I'm glad that you also talk about the problem where a lot of pinterest users reposting mostly Eastern artists' works even if the artists don't want their art reposted. Pinterest is also notoriously known for having a lot of its users not crediting the original artists when reposting art. I've honestly seen A LOT of pins on pinterests where it's a repost of another artist's art that has a watermark text that says "DO NOT REPOST" and it just feels icky.

[@solarz2138]

🥰pinterest banned my main email for hating on draco malfoy pictures when i was 12

[@cyberiaz]

Also recently every time I click on a pin this white dotted-line appears to try to outline a shape in the pin, like wtf? It ruins my mood and it’s so annoying! Tried to find a solution to turn it off but a group on Reddit said there’s no solution so far. I’m actually so irritated by this dude it’s so annoying 😭

[@bull3tpr00f-fl0w3r]

whenever i got that "violated their guidelines" emails, i can feel my brain cells dissipating in the air just because of a normal pin of body anatomy (mind you its just a WOODEN doll)

[@mk-aka-morgan8386]

I don’t get a lot of art on my Pinterest since I usually only use it to look at irl references and bases, so I don’t get any AI on it, I didn’t realize it was a big issue on Pinterest. Art theft has been WAY more obvious, especially since so many of my artists friends have dealt with it 😔😔😔
