I'm curious what Pinterest is used for in the first place!

It used to be used as a place to post and find craft ideas, nowadays it's just an AI cesspit.

It's useful for home design ideas. I have board for different parts of the house. Makes it easier to communicate ideas with my partner so we are aligned

Sounds like any "visual bookmarking" tool would work for that. You could check out https://www.pearltrees.com/ for example (France).

it seems to be focused more on personal stuff, i want something more social.

Not gonna lie i think activitypub based alternative could be cool

[โ€“] Riptide889Try@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

yes i have similar hobby-focused usage

Always wondered this too! It's more of annoyance really cause it always shows up in image searches but then you can't download the full size image without getting an account, I've actually been looking for ways to block that page in my search results.

You've never heard of Splinter? Those little pieces of wood that get stuck in your skin? Need to use tweezers, maybe a needle to get them out?

Much more useful than Pinterest.
