Did you know there’s a toggle to turn off AI content on Pinterest, I haven’t been on it in a while to know how well it works, but I was pretty excited when I found out

This though! Because when they switched to almost (if not entirely) exclusively AI moderation, I was getting flagged for stuff that I had deleted off of my boards years ago, and they kept trying to flag my pins for sh when it was recipes, hairstyles, and wedding inspo. My account got wrongly flagged so much they almost banned my account. And customer service would not respond despite me contacting them repeatedly…

That’s lowkey happening to me too. They flagged one of my pins for adult content and it was just a woman wearing a crocheted top

The toggle doesn’t work 100% unfortunately, I still get slop when I’m trying to find crochet patterns :(
