I think that just shows how narrow your group of acquaintances is and how out of touch you are with a large part of the world.

250 million people use Pinterest every month. That's (approximately, though lower than) the same ballpark as Snapchat and Twitter.

I assume you are capable of Googling their monthly user numbers, just like I did. So I assume your post is just virtue signalling and not actually asking in the spirit of trying to understand others, since it is obvious that yes, people do use Pinterest.

Define 'use'. If 'use' is getting clickbaited through Google images, then the metric is useless. I can't find demographic data but I'd be super interested in that.

I'm Hispanic and have only met a single Hispanic girl who uses Pinterest, and they're pretty young. The 83% number seems wild to me.

250 million people may be using Pinterest currently, but I don't think Pinterest can maintain this position with just one product. It's outdated and most of the content is just copied from elsewhere. More and more people are shifting to Instagram/Reddit.

I personally know people who were using Pinterest back in 2015-2016 but have since then shifted to Instagram.

How do you make vision boards / collections on instagram/reddit? How do you share them selectively? What do you even think Pinterest is?

[ishan1121]

Boards/collections are just glorified marketing terms used to convey that Pinterest has something new to offer. Alternatively, I can create a group chat on Insta or I can create a private subreddit and share the interesting links with the people I want to share. I can create multiple Insta chats and subreddits each for different topics.
