So, I’m trying to make the switch from Pinterest to Pixelfed.
However I’m curious if there’s a way to instant migrate all pins to Pixelfed. Yes, it is more than 10K pins.
Bonus question: How to hide NSFW content on Pixelfed?
Not sure it’s possible, there is an importer for Instagram since Pixelfed is most closely an alternative to that. Never used Pinterest but don’t you have different boards or collections you make yourself? I don’t think Pixelfed can do that.
Pixelfed has an option to tag posts as NSFW and you can in the options either blur or display posts marled NSFW.
There’s also the question of copyright (which is a problem with Pinterest as far as I’m aware), with Instagram I feel (no idea if that is corect) most of the content people post is actually theirs (photos, selfies etc). On Pinterest I feel like most of the stuff is just “imported” (= stolen) from the internet, is that assumption right? I’d be careful of moving huge chunks of copyrighted material publicly from one platform to another. Chances of something happening are obviously extremely, extremely low but morally I think it’s at least something to keep in mind.
I totally forgot about the copyright issue! Hm, you are right, I better be careful with it. Pinterest does not necessarily care about copyrights, as long as it the content keeps circling within the platform.
Yeah, true. I have noticed it’s more like Instagram than Pinterest itself. However unfortunately there’s no alternative for Pinterest yet besides Pixelfed.
Yeah, with Pinterest you can make boards and categorize everything - that’s what I truly love of it. But the amount of huge advertisements just messes with the overall experience. So I don’t mind giving that up and just put everything in one place.
As long as the experience is smooth and user-friendly.
As for the NSFW - I have it as marked NSFW (blurring it) but I want to fully hide it.

Couple of months ago, dansup posted a poll which platform to be next to get a migration-tool. Nothing but Instagram yet.
