Pinterest is fantastic at what it does, which is an online pinboard of stuff you like around a theme.

The obvious use case is wedding planning. One board each for dresses, rings, locations, cakes, table decorations, invites, etc etc. or for redecorating a room - it's brilliant for that kind of stuff.

(I say brilliant, and I'm a Pinterest fan but the site has some user-hostile behaviours on mobile so I ise it a lot less often than I used to.

Unless you don't have a pinterest account in which case it becomes amazingly unhelpful. Many times I've searched for something boardgaming related, I like to make things for my games, and been blocked by the pinterest gatekeeper. I refuse to sign up so every time I leave.

Yes, that's part of the user hostile stuff. It's a shame because it makes me reluctant to recommend pinterest. I don't ever link to my pinterest here for example.
