Fucking Pinterest- how do I stop seeing particular posts

[MovingtoParadise]

I like cute/funny pictures of animals and Pinterest has decided I like tortured/hurt animal pictures. I HATE pictures like that/stories like that. The latest one that came up is of someone 'killing dogs for free on Facebook' with pictures

I've cleared my cache which is in settings - does anyone know how I can choose to never see things like this?

I have accidentally put this is arts and crafts instead of chat

Very pinteresty anyway

Are they adverts?

Are you accidentally following whoever is posting them?

No I don't think so, they just appear in your 'feed'

Nope, not following anyone

Also if you follow all of someones boards you will automatically be added to any future boards they create.

Try clicking on them then click on the three dots at the bottom to report?

That's pretty horrific, can you contact pinterest on twitter or email to ask? I think pinterest will just see animal and not recognise the cruelty. I hope so anyway.

Hope you reported them. Sick bastards.

Although I haven't had this actual problem, I have tried to clean up my feed several times, following tips and articles with titles like 'wtf pintrest?' Some bloggers who use it for business purposes have written stuff about it. The bad news is, it hasn't really helped. I don't use it anymore.

report and block

If you see a picture on you feed stream that you don't like you just hold your finger down on the picture and four options pop up. Click on 'more' from here you can report the pin or if you say you don't like the pin it will remove it plus any similar images from your screen. Hope this helps.

I had excatly the same problem, i often look at Pinterest with DD so I really needed to not have those images coming up. I reported and said I didn't want to see that and blocked the posters, I haven't had any animal abuse stuff pop up for a while so I'm hoping I solved the issue.
